I love the story telling in this song. Reminds me of when I lived in Chicago in the 90s.

See what you think of this version πŸ˜‰ https://youtu.be/BGM3I33W70c?si=nAm5gV3eGjENU8ne

Don't like the metal core additions? It's definitely controversial.

Something about changing genres here I wasn't feeling

Wait is coolio not the original?

How Deep is Your Love - Bee Gees

How Deep is Your Love - Take That

https://youtube.com/watch?v=CTqabbIPfc0&pp=ygUVaG93IGRlZXAgaXMgeW91ciBsb3Zl I definitely prefer the original Bee Gees version, but Take That did pretty good too! It's not an easy song for some vocal ranges.
reply
I thought this was about to be a club song for a second
reply
Not quite! Although many people I've talked to remember them for their disco songs, they did a variety of styles over the years.
reply
Take that did a great job on this. I hadn't heard their version before. But really really great job.
reply
Who did it better?
reply
Kravitz by a (wait for it)... Country mile. 😁 He really does this song well.
reply
I go original here
reply
Bold take. I like it.
reply
The Guess Who were a great band but I think I like Lenny’s better.
reply
Kravitz's cover took full ownership of that song.
reply
It’s a great cover.

Of the boygeniuses, Lucy Daucus is the one who's clearly the big classic rock fan, and I enjoy her take on The Boss. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=129kuDCQtHs https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q1JYXY15k6E
reply
Thats a cool cover
reply
She does a great job of this track for sure. But the boss is the boss. I gotta say, if I was the boss and I heard this wonderful woman pay tribute to me like that. I'd be very honoured.
reply
I dont remember if we've had this one before... If we have, I got plenty more to play around with πŸ˜‰
reply
We've definitely touched on these, but who cares they're solid tracks
reply
Alrighty then, let's see if we've had this ;)
But this time with power metal πŸ˜‰ Avantasia - Manic (2019) https://youtu.be/rxCtD4Dc-yY?si=h5eS8JwwRKykgKpL
Or Firewind - Maniac (2008) (live) https://youtu.be/uKeXz46j2OQ?si=fMu9-A9Zk8f7eCS0
Or just because some things sound really fun with double bass blast beats here's MyGrain - Maniac (2024)
I love this song and pretty much all versions of it. It just gets you so pumped.

She is killing it πŸ”₯πŸ”₯ her vocals kinda remind me a bit of Lzzy Hale.
reply
This is great, although I'm partial to Tenacious D's take on it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QLWkl5YpiD0&t=1s
reply
Tenacious D did a fantastic version, I always felt however the emotion Corey Taylor manages to get over in the song is just gut wrenching.
reply
reply
Damn Bellzer ... You got me stumped. I love Aaron Lewis's vocals. But AIC aswell... This is too close to call.
reply
I say AIC but Aaron does Layne proud
reply
I'm inclined to agree with you but I am also a sucker for a decent stripped back acoustic version of something.
I thought this was going to be a blowout for Alice in Chains and I still think they win but very good cover.
reply
Heard this for the 1st time on UFC300 just now, a week after posting 2 other versions of this https://youtu.be/azeh1ZbxWwI?si=iBl0FbCyCypUGBLM
