lol @ the feds bustin down the door!!lololol

and i never even realized they said little girl so much in brit invasion songs, they do, come to think of it!

huh.. maybe back then it didnt have such a bad connotation??

but the line 'shes just a substitute for what was taken from me' leads me to believe

that its either about someone who lost his daughter or daughter grew up and hes missing

his little girl. on that level i can relate my kids graduating in a few weeks

and i see little boys and just want to hug em....you do feel a sense of loss and want that

little boy or little girl back. see, i tell myself thats what the song is about so i dont

have to go bathe in rubbing alcohol.

lololololololololol

For me, nothing will ever be worse than that necropheliac Kenny G's noodley, out of tune, over reverbed, piece of shit over dubbing of Louis Armstrong's "What a Wonderful World".

As for favorite covers... that's tough. I do like RHCP's cover on "Higher Ground"

[penny-dreaddfull]

oh my goddess, kenny g. dared covered a louis armstrong song?? :yuckky: :x

and Hells yeah to the red hots version of higher ground

lol, you guys remember the 80's metal band Bulletboys??

their version of 'for the love of money'

is quite full of win

[TooBoku]

He didn't even cover it though... he played over the original recording.

[penny-dreaddfull]

you talkin bout kenny Wee?? well, that makes it even more craptastic ~farts in kenny's general direction~

[Joe > Average]

Kenny G's cover version definitely sucks (N) . But I still think even if I had never heard of the original versions, Hilary's "My Generation" would still be worse :x .

I like the RHCP cover as well .

Though the best cover of all is "Behind Blue Eyes" by Limp Bizkit .

jk .

[TooBoku]

tough call...

on the kenny peepee vs. hilary muff

[Qball]

"Hey Joe" and "All Along the Watchtower" are so great that, in fact, some people don't realize that they are not Hendrix's songs
