Eric Carmen lifted Rachmaninoff's 2nd piano concerto. Some may remember the song All by Myself.
Also Never gunna fall in love again. That was Rach's symphony No 2.
Different genres, so no comparison.
what’s a song cover that you think is better than the original?
The first ones to come to mind are Whitney’s version of I Will Always Love You and Allen Stone’s Georgia On My Mind but I would love to hear other contributions as well! I feel like there are a lot of songs where a covered version gets more popular than the original and people end up not realizing that it is a cover (ex. i had a friend that genuinely believed the Jonas Brothers wrote Year 3000). so, what‘a a song that was written by one artist but (figuratively) owned by another?
@bondmanp - a Rob Dickinson fan - yes!! You were aware that he is the cousin of Bruce? |
@zydeco1 thanks for turning me on to this young talent. It seems she specializes in sounding like other singers. Does she do her own thing yet??? |
