  2. El #TuneTuesday de esta semana es #YouCantTouchThis: canciones versionadas infinidad de veces, pero jamás superadas.

    Yo voy por un sitio parecido, pero un poco diferente. Os traigo la canción de la que se han hecho más #sample de la historia de la música gracias a su solo de batería. El #hiphop es lo que es gracias a este tema.

    James Brown - Funky Drummer (1969)

  6. In this week's edition of #TuneTuesday @lil_meow_meow says #YouCantTouchThis - songs that shouldn't be covered by other artists.

    Some amazing artists have covered this song, I know of 17 different covers including Prince, Adele, George Michael, but Bonnie did it best.

    Did anybody nomiate M.C. Hammer's "U Can't Touch This" yet?

    Well I am not, so I'm going with Pink Floyd. You don't do yourself a favour if you try to cover "Echoes". So don't, just... don't.

  10. When I saw Tune Tuesday's theme of "You Can't Touch This" about cover, I thought it meant that we were talking purely of bad covers! But, for me, bad covers are entirely forgettable so I couldn't think of anything.

    But, it's not. It's about a cover that may be good, bad, whatever, but the original still hits and is still better.

    For me, that's Fleetwood Mac's Landslide. song.link/us/i/593328216

    There are so many amazing covers from artists like Smashing Pumpkins and the band formerly known as Dixie Chicks, but the original stands the test of time as the best.

  12. Wasn't sure I was going to find a song for this Tune Tuesday's theme of You Can't Touch This, where the original song is better than any covers.

    Then I remembered one in the shower. I can think of a couple cool covers of the song, but none match up to the OG.

    Run-D.M.C. "It's Tricky"

  14. This week, the #TuneTuesday theme is #YouCantTouchThis - songs where the original is better than the covers.

    I'm going with a song that, growing up in the 70s and 80s in a family that listened to country radio, I must've heard dozens of versions of. None of them, in my humble opinion, hold a candle to the original. Here's a particularly magical and self-deprecating recording ("I'll play a medley of my hit"):

    Townes Van Zandt, "Pancho & Lefty" (1972; live 1975-76)

    In my humble opinion, I give you:

  18. This week's #TuneTuesday theme is #YouCantTouchThis - where the original song is the best version.

    Probably the most covered song I know of beside, maybe, Stairway to Heaven, is NERVE by BiS

    And I still prefer the good ol' original version

    So, this is a big call, but hear me out. I can think of at least 6 amazing covers of Love Poem, but the simplicity of IU's original is so much perfection.

    IU - Love Poem | KBS 200918

    Special mentions to Eunkwang, Seungmin & Jongho on Kingdom, gorgeous Seungkwan, Jung Seung-hwan X Suhyun and even Park Seo Joon on Palette, because I love their covers too.

  21. For #TuneTuesday today's prompt is #YouCantTouchThis - songs whose originals are better than their covers. This was a poser, but then I reached back into my odd musical catalog, and came up with one. Gary Numan & The Tubeway Army's Down In The Park. Like a lot of Numan's output, this has a creepy kind of vibe that I really like, and few others can emulate. song.link/i/273106987

  23. Here is my entry for #TuneTuesday , today prompted by @lil_meow_meow about songs that are still better in the original version despite the copious amount of covers. #YouCantTouchThis

    My choice goes to Madonna's "Frozen". There are some good covers, even rock and metal covers.
    But the original one is still on top.

    @Kitty

    Madonna - Frozen

  25. It's Hello @Kitty #TuneTuesday with a shout out to the originals.
    @lil_meow_meow requests songs that cannot be improved #YouCantTouchThis

    A lot of #BobDylan songs have been covered along the years. Arguably for the better, but not this one..

    song.link/nl/i/190393869

    I especially despise the Adele version. All the pain, roughness.. run down to a polished turd.

    To Make You Feel My Love is a gem from the master piece Time Out Of Mind, in a time when people deemed the master as good as dead.

  26. Today's theme for @Kitty 's #TuneTuesday is #YouCantTouchThis - where the original song is the best version.

    My love for a good (and bad!) cover dates back decades. I have a playlist with 140 covers of Ode To Billy Joe (link in comments), but I'm pretty sure none touch the Bobby Gentry's original...

    Thought of one more. This Chicks cover was pretty good. The Smashing Pumpkins cover I was not really into. You just can't improve upon Stevie Nicks and Fleetwood Mac in this case, IMO.

    (I went with this version from The Dance as it's the one I know best)

    Fleetwood Mac - Landslide

    Sorry for premature Christmasposting, I've just never heard a cover of this that holds a flame to the original, or that anyone was conceivably asking for. Also, there's often some tiresome gammon giving themselves a hernia because they changed the offensive line.

  31. #TuneTuesday theme is #YouCantTouchThis songs where you think the original is better than cover versions.

    I think the Iron and Wine cover is more well known but I much prefer the Postal Service original version.

    The Postal Service - Such Great Heights

  32. It’s @Kitty’s #TuneTuesday time.

    @lil_meow_meow has chosen #YouCantTouchThis - where the original song is the best version.

    With the greatest respect to Kirsty MacColl, covering this was close on sacrilegious.
