Stormbringer Posted January 1, 2023 Share Posted January 1, 2023 Let's kick off 2023 with a new game This will follow the same principle of "The Cover Or The Original?" but it will be much more general. For each round we will face two different versions of the same song. But it doesn't have to be the original vs a cover version. It can be 2 different covers, none being the original; or it can be an early career version vs a late career version by the same artist... or the studio recording vs a live performance... or two different live performances... you name it! It's all valid as long as it is the same song. Same as in "The Cover Or The Original", the next participant will choose which version they prefer to then post a new pairing and so on. For each round you can title the videos however you want Also I reckon this can open the door for Classical Music to participate, since the concepts of "cover" and "original" from the other game have little sense in that world. But things are much more free here. So, to start things off... Round 1: Early Career Version: Late Career Version: Full credit for this idea goes to @SuperG.Girl Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
