Great Cover Versions,with no clue

[Romia]

Hello everybody!
I'm so happy at this great forum,Wow!just uncountable great articles,post and discussions about this great love,Rock I mean.
Thanks for all I learn from you.
I have some songs that are cover versions of some great hits but I don't know how to find their singers,I searched google but got no clue for almost all of them,
Have you got any idea what I can do to find their singers,Great voices,my God It's impossible to get tired of listening to them.
I'll be so thankful for any advice!

Re: Great Cover Versions,with on clue

Maybe you could list the songs and we can help you with finding out who sang the original and who sings the cover of the songs.

Get shazam or any other music recognition program for ur cell phone..it would be the easiest way

Thank you so much for your advices, I have a program called track id on my cellphone but it couldn't recognize any of them,here are songs names,i cane share the songs if needed,too:
Quantanamera,
Wishing on a star(I'm wishing on a star to follow where you are,I know this is not the version of Rose Royce)
a cover of Say goodbye by Air Supply
a cover of all for love by Bryan Adams
I Will Be Right Here Waiting For You
A cover of Without love by Tom Jones
Please forgive me I can't stop loving you
Midnight not a sound from the pavement
The song by Phil Collins Ah,think twice,just another day for you and me in paradise
Is it love that I am in
So long,it was so long ago,But I still got the blues for you
Carrie by Europe
Dream,dream ,dream,when i feel blue
Sounds of silence
You're my everything,the sun that shines above you
Can't Fight This Feeling by Reo Speedwagon
Rod Stewart - I don't want to talk about it
Hard To Say I'm Sorry Lyrics - Chicago
A cover of Greenfields by The Brothers Four
Actually non of them had even a name ,just numbers and sorry for such a long list!
I know many of these songs have been covered by many famous singers in their albums that could be found by programs like trackID cause they are listed and available int the database,but these versions are so professional and their singers are not young boys or teens who have made covers for auditions or competitions,with perfect and careful use of musical instruments and professionally sung.

How did you come across these songs - eg did you record them from the radio or did somebody do a mixed tape/CD for you? Maybe they are from a film soundtrack or covers album?

I'll have a guess on the Rose Royce song, is it this version?


Seal - Wishing On A Star

 

[Romia]

These songs were on a DVD borrowed from a friend and their folder name was something like "The original golden Pop" or something like that,lots of hits of the golden era of rock and a lot of them had their names on them but these are simply nameless,
The song wishing on a star was performed by a woman,and thanks for the link,Seal has a great voice!
I really don't know how I can find anything about them,Is there a cover versions related website or anything like that?
These singers are obviously so professional and I'm sure they have sung many more songs,I wanna listen to their songs!

 

[Pistol]

It would be easier if u you could upload them

@Tray:Thank you dear friend,I'm going there to check !
@Pistol:Gee,I'm just a bit afraid...!Isn't such thing against the Community rules?I was thinking that would be the only way,but that Copy Right stuff,freaks me out,of course just a lil!but After all if there wont be any trouble caused by sharing them,I wanna immediately do it,How can I do that,Just attach them here or somewhere with a link attached to here?

 

[Romia]

I just tried to find any clue about Carrie on both websites but no trace,
and for Goodbye by Air Supply got nothing,either.
Is it possible for me to upload 'em here?
