« muppetmaker : I guess not, I thought we had to find a video that related to the one above in some sort of cover form. Im an idiot. I need to keep out of threads that confuse me.
Lol. The video has to be in direct relation to the last video posted. Since the last video was CCR doing "Proud Mary" the option would be to either pick another CCR song (one that someone else has covered) or pick another artist doing Proud Mary)

Ok, let me try this again. If I failed, I will offically retire my Cover Song Game jersey.

John Fogerty: Proud Mary

OK, technically, as John Fogerty wrote the song and was in CCR I'm not entirely sure that counts.

But I'm gonna get us out of this mire (Yay!)

Status Quo covering Rockin' All Over The World

<a href='http://www.plime.com/redir.p?http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_fKlORAIYkk' class='plime' target='_blank' rel='nofollow'><b>flash video</b></a>



Originally written by Fogerty.

So, just to recap (and I really do hope I got this right)...

The next video should either be:

a) a Status Quo song that has been covered by someone else

b) a Status Quo song that is a cover of someone else's song

c) a cover of Rockin' All Over The World that is not by Status Quo (or Fogerty, or CCR, I guess)

All of which exist.

Go...

It's weeping about that mullet, Jeff.

But for leading me to find this hitherto unknown gem, I thank you DEP - this is the higher purpose of this thread, I believe.

not embedding so it doesn't count for the game, but feel free to follow the link so you can see it.

...but since that's not embedding; let's try Stairway to Heaven

Thanks...

There are, of course, plenty of covers of Stairway. Just don't say "Far Corporation".

I went for something a little more obscure; at least to me it is. Dolly herself is not exactly unheard of, but I'd no idea she'd done this.

I'd really want to follow that up with Val Kilmer's cover of Tutti Frutti from Top Secret:

But unless you count some of the songs on The Doors soundtrack that he might have sung on it's a bit of a dead end.

So here's MC5 doing the same song

I fancied resurrecting thread post (as I apparently killed it).

Pretty much everyone in the world ever has covered Kick Out The Jams at some point, so I figured it was a goer, but apparently not.

Here are The Blue Oyster Cult doing it:

<a href='http://www.plime.com/redir.p?http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HkdvWwY2yhs' class='plime' target='_blank' rel='nofollow'><b>flash video</b></a>

.

Just to recap the rules, the next video should be one of the following:

  • A song originally by Blue Oyster Cult covered by someone else.
  • A song sung by BOC that was originally by someone else.
  • Another cover of Kick Out The Jams


Again, all of these exist.
