Best & Worse of FM cover songs ( as recorded by others )
I think the only person who has covered Christines Songbird was Eva cassidy and my god I have to say that her version is the best ever! So beautiful!!
Worse song IMO was the Dixie Hicks 'Landslide"!!! |

The worst Fleetwood Mac cover ever was Elton John's version of Don't Stop! I think I have to agree that the best cover was Eva Cassidy's Songbird.

i think the most listen-able cover I've ever heard is the Cranberries version of "Go Your Own Way"

I really like the Smashing Pumpkins cover of Landslide.

Worst: Duncan Sheik's cover of Songbird. There was a lot of crap on that Patron Saints of Pop cover album too.

That Legacy album was a mess wasn't it! I forgot all about Duncan Sheiks Songbird. I have to say I did like Sister Hazels Gold Dust Woman. I thought it was really cool that they added the little bit of Rhiannon at the end.

BEST cover....Jewel singing "You Making Loving Fun"
WORST cover...Cyndi Lauper singing "You Make Loving Fun" (and usually I like Cyndi..but she butchers this song!) |

Best Cover: Camper Van Beethoven's Tusk. The whole album is really weird and cool.
Worst Cover: Some dork on American idol singing Go Your Own Way. |

Best: I Don't Want To Know (Goo Goo Dolls) only one that I feel is actually better then the original.
Worst: A lot suck but I got to go with the Elton John Don't Stop Band Wagon.

I have got to say that I really love Matchbox Twenty's NGBA.
I'm not saying it's better than the original or anything, but I'm saying that it has the alienated tone of someone who really is never going back. Lindsey sings it a different way. In fact, he defines the song (as finding joy in love after thinking you never would again) in a manner that is exactly the opposite of what I think the song is about on its own. So, when he sings it he interprets it one way and Matchbox's version is on the other side of the spectrum. I really enjoy the different approach they bring to it. But I admit that I like Rob Thomas' voice anyway. So, he can draw me in rather easily. Michele |

Best: Faster Tiger's version of The Chain. They took the song, kept everything that made it so unique but also put their own personal take on it.
Worst: Just about every other cover I've heard. Matt |

I hate the Go Your Own Way cover by Wilson Phillips. It's so...slow and kind of annoys me.
I think the Dixie Chicks version of Landslide is very nice. Very true to the original, but I really, really dig Natalie Maines' voice on it for some reason.

Now see, I love the Patron Saints of Pop album! To my way of thinking, it's the best single collection of FM covers I've heard.
