Paul Anka farts better tunes than Kurt Cobain.... and that ain't teen spirit you're smelling.

in all reality, I own both the Pat Boone and the Paul Anka discs. Good stuff. Comedic at points, but still good.

I really like the Pat Boone version. It's a different way of going about the song, and I think it's done very creatively. I like these a lot.

Nooooooo!!! Not the Dolly version of Stairway. I had just gotten over that horrifying version.

Don't forget when Mary J murdered it on AI I believe it was last year? With the help of Steve Vai, who should've gotten his rock license chopped up into a million little pieces for that crap. Hip hop + Led Zeppelin = unhappy Pagey.

I don't know why but I have this strange inkling that you don't like Nirvana

Can't say as I like any of these, and the Stairway to Heaven covers are just terrible. Seems Mary Bilge has changed some words too "there's a sign on the bar" and "in a tree by the crook" unless it's just me mishearing. I do however prefer this to Dolly's attempt - that was truly horrific! Btw, regards Mary's cover what was AC/DC's Bryan Johnson doing playing piano there - he sure gets around

I'm not sure what would give you that impression.


Seriously, I do think that the Paul Anka version is FAR more listenable than the Nirvana version of Teen Spirit.

I don't think that Vai did anything too horrible there. Nothing too impressive either.

Hip hop + Led Zeppelin = unhappy Pagey.

What about this 'classic'?

^^^^^

Jimmy sold out there, I must admit!

Good lord...it's way too early in the morning for reading a thread like this...

I'll take the originals over all of those covers, Shania's being the one I don't mind.(Yeah I'm a fan of hers.)
