Come Together

[Metal Health]

I love this Beatles song so much! I love Aerosmith even more. That's why I bought their Greatest Hits. I got home and and played the cd. I loved it. Classics like Dream On, Walk This Way, Kings And Queens, Same Old Song And Dance, Sweet Emotion etc. Then, I got to Track #9. "Come Together". I listened to it and thought it was interesting, to say the least. I'll stick with the Beatles version. Wanted to share this and see what you thought.

I like this Aerosmith cover. It is way better than all of the songs on The Art Of McCartney, which is a tribute album to Paul, done by a lot of artists, but it is terrible.

It's a decent cover, but it lacks that Beatles touch which makes the song extra special. Needless to add, I'm a huge fan of Aerosmith as well.

I've only heard Alice Coopers cover of "Eleanor Rigby", which I thought was good. I need to check some of the other tracks on it, at least by the artists I like.

Aerosmith did a good job but nothing to distinguish it. The Beatles original is perfection.

Not bad at all. They separate themselves from a straight take-off of the Beatles. I know Brothers Johnson primarily for "Strawberry Letter 23."

Yeah, that's their huge hit. I bought the album on a lark a while ago at some yard sale and when I heard their version of Come Together I was hooked. I love it. Yeah, they totally make the tune their own, but, so does Aerosmith, in their fashion.

This is the only one I liked, and I'm not even a Def Leppard fan.
