Carrie Underwood covering Motley Crue
While that version doesn't have the balls or the emotion that Motley's original does, it really wasn't too bad. I'm not a very big fan of most female singers in country these days (as I think they all sound like pop singers who couldn't make it in pop + they all sound the same), but I think Carrie Underwood has got a lot of vocal talent. At least she seems to in some of the songs I've heard her do.

Jen, I love the Carrie Underwood cover of "I'll Stand By You"! Great pick! :cheers2 The others.......not so much aside from the Tim McGraw cover which was decent! Speaking of Tim McGraw he covered a Ryan Adams song and while I like Ryan Adams better they are both pretty good!

:omg: I seriously didn't think this thread would get any replies! :grinthumb

I've NEVER heard that version of Tiny Dancer by Tim McGraw. Never even knew he did it. Very cool! :D

Isn't it pleasantly surprising? I found that one on Pandora radio a few days ago, and I must say... it's not half bad! Seems a lot more upbeat than the original and doesn't drag out as long. I still prefer Elton's version though, of course.

I can tell you my least favorite-Rascal Flatts covering Tom Cochrane's Life Is A Highway.Then I saw them on some show a few weeks ago doing a medley of Long Time/Carry On Wayward Son and Free Ride.

I couldn't agree more. That song is gosh awful. We'll just leave it to the Cars soundtrack for the kiddos. :D


I loved Carrie's version of Alone on AI, but ever since then everyone and their MOM tries to cover that song on AI. I got a little tired of it.

Actually, the first time I ever heard When the Stars Go Blue was when my friend made me listen to the Bethany Joy Lenz/Tyler Hilton version. I love that one!
