Re: Covered in glory
Great idea, McGeorge.
Here's the original:

And the (vastly superior) cover:

That's a revelation, ExpandingMan. Sabs rule, though I actually rather like the Ansley Dunbar version too (which I'd never heard).

Re: Covered in glory
Totally loving this thread McG and ExM.
Not exactly a huge difference 'tween these first two versions,
but a great tune (from the soundtrack of a very poor Dean Martin movie of the same name),
Burt Bacharach - Something Big
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q-VqYUiuZSA&list=FLHP--0hDGIUjx9d8h9JVrZA&index=1
Jim O'Rourke - Something Big
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1TVVQvk5KbM&list=FLHP--0hDGIUjx9d8h9JVrZA&index=2
and then there's this ...
Mark Lindsay - Something Big (Stereo Single Version)

Re: Covered in glory
I never liked the Cure much — Yelp Rock
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wa2nLEhUcZ0
But I have to admit, "Friday I'm in Love" is a catchy tune. Covered just recently by Yo La Tengo
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jJwTSTlpsak
Otter : Take it easy, I'm pre-law.
Boon : I thought you were pre-med.
Otter : What's the difference?

Re: Covered in glory
Similarly, Culture Club was always a bit much
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2nXGPZaTKik
But in the hands of the Violent Femmes, "Do You Really Want to Hurt Me?" sounds pretty damn good
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jmsj67QpYZI
Otter : Take it easy, I'm pre-law.
Boon : I thought you were pre-med.
Otter : What's the difference?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6fpuEFQFP-Y
Robert Wyatt - 'The Whole Point of No Return'

The last one is haunting - if I (or the kids) can find a decent trumpet player - this is what I'd like played at my funeral ....
