With the Darkglass/EBMM teaser and the rumor of Josh Paul having a custom preamp in a MM, here is my absolute favorite Daughtry tune.
The band gets a bad rap. I used to date someone who loved them and got ‘dragged’ several times. The band is tight. Great clanky bass riff.

This song reminds me of “Fork Boy” from LARD.
Reason it reminded me is because as soon as it takes off, It reminds me of the the movie “Natural Born Killers” and it’s soundtrack, and that song is ForkBoy.
Great soundtrack BTW
So is Pulp Fiction.

I beg to differ. There are plenty of covers that are way better then the original.
Oh, you want Proof. Now I have to think.

Ok, Alien Ant Farm did an awesome cover of Smooth Criminal.
Screeching weasel covered “I can see clearly now”
Fear covered “We’ve got to get out of this place”
Rev-Co - “Do you think I am sexy”
X covered Soul Kitchen, but yeah, both the original and cover are GREAT.
Most of Bauhaus.

Yes, much of it is subjective to the listener, but many are actually better songs.

Frank Zappa covering “Highway to Heaven” Live.

Edit: Ok, I just saw @howard’s post, along the same lines.

At some point I am going to need to get a SBV-550.

Excellent bass at that timecode.

This whole concert is awesome. The Kopyright Kops keep taking down vids from it, unfortunately. The whole band is in top form, it’s their farewell show, and Miki Furukawa just kills it on bass. And vocals for her songs too.

Other timecode highlights:

@celticstar - this is a prime example of “indie”. In fact they were one of the prototypical Japanese Indie bands.

One of the great Indie band stories. When the Runaways split, Joan jett tried to get a record contract, and everyone turned her down as she would not wear short skirts and act like a pop artist. So she did something no woman had done before - she started her own record company, Blackheart Records, and made the albums she wanted. And when she went to 1 with I Love Rock And Roll, they all loved her naturally.

This song Bad Reputation is about getting turned down by the record companies. Here she is singing it at her HOF induction. She is badass.

Hm, yes, they make it their own, which I can appreciate in a cover, but it is such weak sauce compared to the version on “The Song Remains The Same”, which, in essence, is perfect :star_struck:

Their documentary is AWESOME.
Same with Go-Go’s doc. Both worth a watch.
