For some reason I larded up a comments section with videos of cover songs. Mainly from the 3000 songs at work.

Substance McGravitas said...

When Slayer gets around to covering The Mekons there'll be some Mekons content.

I scrolled through and didn't see it. Did anyone even bother to suggest Goldfinger's brilliant "99 Red Balloons"?

It blows Nena out of the water, and they even do a nice bit of it in the original German. Best cover of all time, in terms of being that much better than the original...

J Neo Marvin said...

The 7 Seconds version was pretty good too.

Smut Clyde said...

Like you needed a reason.

Teh Great Gazoogle said...

About 10,200,000 results for creed + cover + version.

M. Bouffant said...

Windmills or Canyons thereof?

Substance McGravitas said...

I think this counts as a cover.

Rusty Shackleford said...

It blows Nena out of the water,

I'm going to pretend I didn't read that.

Canyons Of Your Mind

Smut Clyde said...

I was about to quote from the 3rd Duino Elegy on the subject of "canyons of the mind", but a helpful little Windows dialog box popped up, saying "Do you really want to be a wanker? Y/N".

What was your final answer, S.C.?

Smut Clyde said...

I opted to be a wanker but in a different place.

Substance McGravitas said...

No fair being candid in alternate universes.

Dragon-King Wangchuck said...

If you were still at it, maybe they wouldn't be debating with "New England Redneck".

SRSLY, I stay home on the long weekend for this? Oh wait, I did it because I need to get the tomatoes into the garden. Happy 2-4 anyways McGeavitas.

Dragon-King Wangchuck said...

That's and odd typo. I blame the muscle ache from gardening all day.

Sure and now you've got it in for the Hadrisaurs too.

They've got enough on their plate, what with the goddam comet and all.

LEAVE THE HADRISAURS ALONE, GODDAMMIT!!!

Smut Clyde said...

They've got enough on their plate

They won't mind a garnish.

mikey said...

I'm thinking artichoke confit

Smut Clyde said...

RIP Martin Gardner.

Very few people wake up one day seeing the world rationally; it’s a series of steps that takes you there. Eventually you look around and realize it, and when you look behind you you see the footsteps that brought you to that place...

Here endeth the lesson. THINK!

Read and learn, but never stop thinking!!

The other people on the train got pretty upset, I hear.

Big Bad Bald Bastard said...

Got another cover for you-Zadnji voz za Čačak.

Cross posted at sadly central.

Wow, the guitar playing the main riff sounds like a plastic toy.
