"Grandpa,what's the
difference
between a
remix and
a cover?"
"Well, my
little head
cabbage kim
chee, remix
is when some
DJ takes a
song and
adds a beat
or slows it
down or he might mix in a few samples of bits of other songs
or added sounds. But a cover is when you take an original
song and have a totally new band play the song their way.
Most of the time, covers wreak. It's hard to beat the original.
So I guess the big difference is that a remix will have the
original vocals but the cover is different singers, different band."
"Just wondering, cuz I got a new dance...check it out...I hold one
hand up and I just bounce...'There must be some kind of way
out of here.....said the Joker to the Thief....'"

Besides Jimi's AATW cover...Santana's BMW cover, Rare Earth's What'd I Say cover, C&K's Suite Judy Blue Eyes cover and Nova's Shaky Ground cover were all better than the originals.
You can have the rest.
Sat through the Grammies last night and decided that the music had indeed finally died...until Hancock got the big prize. Then he spoiled it all by pulling out a prepared speech.
OH GRAMMYS WAS SOOOO WEAK.
and i really truly really dont like feist ever at all never forever. because she was more than birdlike, she tried to act cool by not combing her hair, but she also forgot to bring her talent. instead she sat there looking like she had osteoporosis or some other degenerate bone disease. JK shes cool.
covers are great until you hear the original. but most times my ears are too unlearned to have any sort of appreciation.
