Recommended Posts

Instead of all of the youtube cover topics, here's an official one. feel free to just post any covers you like/dislike that you found on youtube and tell whether its supposed to be good or bad so people know what they are about to watch.

I'll start off with some that i found........

Good....

Adam's Song (Acoustic) - great voice

Violence (full band) - drummer is fucking insane! They sound really young, but are still hella good

Bad.....actually the worst cover i've ever seen.......

Anthem Part 2 (full band)- doesnt sound like anyones been playing their instruments for more than a few hours (except the drummer), and no idea whatsup with the singing, i think he is deaf

Fair enough.

Anything by "Sometime Next Tuesday" is absolutely dreadful:

Now for good covers:

Josie - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zd-cvtGO1is (I like it)

Adam's Song - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pP9lc410s2w (instrumental)

Adam's Song - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JEgloi_Gj44&mode=related&search= (decent)

The problem with almost all of the covers I see is that the bands lack any sort of energy. They just stand there and play their instruments..they seem bored, and so do the audiences. Also, maybe one half of the blink covers I see are from non-english speaking countries, so the singing is sketchy.

Overall, it's hard to come by a cover that is awesome. There was an AVA cover somewhere around here, and the playing was good, but the guys simply sounded like faggots.

What I'm saying here is that pretty much all the covers I see suck. I dare you to show me a good one that isn't by a famous band. You might say that the only way to come across good covers is to look at famous bands/musicians, but that's not true. I've seen covers of shit not of blink 182 that have sounded awesome.

anyone with a small amount of musical talent can sound good in time. its just the majority of covers on youtube are by fags who have been playing their instruments for 3 weeks, go to their friends house and just record them playing together right at the start with no practice. i saw a really good cover of helena by some japanese people.

here is my immense cover of ben wah balls on guitar

I actually REALLY like this acoustic cover of The Adventure (not Blink, but still). It's by two guys. Most of you guys might call it emo, but I don't care. I liked it enough to rip the audio and put it on my iPod.

Hm, dunno, but the second voice doesn't fit in imo.

It sounds a littlebit too high or something..

The singer seems to insist on spelling like Tom. Like putting that w everywhere.

yeah i do that on purpose , just for the sake of doing a tom delonge impression when singing his songs, i know its wrong and i shouldnt but hey sometimes i cant help it due to only ever hearing the song sung by mr delonge , cheers for the comments by the way
