THIRTEEN COVER SONGS
I LIKE BETTER THAN THE ORIGINALS
I admit it -- I stole this idea shamelessly from Kwizgiver. The order is simply reflects how the songs came to me.
1) Solitary Man. Johnny Cash. Originally by Neil Diamond
2) Emotion. Destiny’s Child. Originally by Samantha Sang
3) River. James Taylor. Originally by Joni Mitchell.
4) Money. The Beatles. Originally by Barrett Strong
5) You Don’t Know Me. Jann Arden. Originally by Eddy Arnold
6) Me and Bobby McGee. Janis Joplin. Originally by Kris
Kristofferson
7) Dedicated to the One I Love. The Mamas and the Papas.
Originally by the Shirelles
8) Ain’t No Mountain High Enough. Diana Ross. Originally by
Marvin Gaye and Tammi Terrell
9) Both Sides Now. Judy Collins. Originally by Joni
Mitchell.
10) Always Something There to Remind Me. Naked Eyes.
Originally by Dionne Warwick
11) Stoney End. Barbra Streisand. Originally by Laura Nyro.
12) New York, New York. Frank Sinatra. Originally by Liza
Minnelli.
13) Twist and Shout. The Beatles. Originally by the Isley
Brothers.
I think many of those songs are best known by their covers. Good list!
ReplyDeleteI had no idea the Naked Eyes song was a Dionne Warwick cover!
