I don't think that this has been done on the new board yet.
And who knows, maybe if they read this we might see some more covers in the sets.
>_>
<_<
I vote Dylan. It's just a cool as hell.
Burning For You was a close second place though.
I don't think I missed off any covers

It was hard to chose between Dylan and Springsteen, but Atlantic City brings a dark, slightly evil edge to the game.

I have Against the Wind and Look Out Cleveland, but I ran out of options, so put the Other as the last choice.
(And those two are my least favourites)
I heard Ride On on youtube and it RAWKED.

i assume you mean "atlantic city - bruce springsteen" not "atlantic city - burning for you"; although that would be a kind of funny mashup. tough question, and answer might depend on the time of day and what i have had to drink. the led zeppelin cover is the only one i don't like. it is kind of a lame but funny cover of a kind of lame song.

Can You Please Crawl Out Your Window: Great cover of a kick-ass song; it's on an incredible soundtrack; and "I'm Not There" was an instant classic to boot.

Yeah, I saw it just after I posted, but I can't edit the contents of the poll. |

I voted History Lesson Part II but then COMPLETELY forgot about the amazing Dance Music cover - "okay so I'm 17 years old, and you're the last best thing I've got going/but then the super-secret-sickness starts to eat through you - what am I supposed to do?" which got me through boring-ass coach journeys across Greece this time last year.

They also covered "Ain't Talkin' 'Bout Love" on the RNRMW tour...and it was so fucking good.

Their cover of Dance Music is the only thing THS has ever done that has dissapointed me.
It just seemed like Craig really wasn't trying to put too much emotion into it.

Well, in his defense, that's the only take of their version of that song we've ever heard, right? I thought it was pretty good.
I really enjoy American Music. It's so breezy and it sounds like band is having alot of fun. History Lesson Part II is a close second because it's such a great song, and the way they personalize it makes me really happy. Atlantic City is very good, though they drag the a capella part out wayyyy too long.

I'm probably in the minority here but "Atlantic City", the cover, doesn't do it for me.
My choice
Burn out the day
Burn out the night

I'd love to hear the "Lawyers, Guns and Money" cover that they do but I haven't been able to find a recording. Warren Zevon is a legend.

I will go for the Dylan, and put me down for "Against the Wind" as my least fav by a large margin.

My favorite is the cover of Michael Jackson's "Dirty Diana" that I only dream they would do. Seriously, it's awesome.

I think you will have a new contender for this poll next week.
All I'm saying is, "it's so damn easy making love to you".

Against the Wind is so good though Seger version = Good, CF version = awkward I think CF is better with the slow ballad-y songs when he speak-sings a bit more e.g. First Night, Citrus, Cheyenne, than when he tries to softly sign as he does on Against the Wind. Though he did pull it off big-time on Discouraged. Just my opinion, but Against the Wind is ONLY THS song that consistently make me push skip on my iPod. |
