    well sorry, you're going to hear it anyways

    first off GNR isn't anything overly spectacular, second, doing a cover is generally speaking an act of respect which is apreciated by the original writers, third, covers arn't ment to recreate one bands creation but to give new life to an old idea, fourth, you need to chill and tone down the language before you have a stroke man

    ps, don't go usin the peace symbol like that if you're just spreadin the hate

    Geez, calm down lol. I agree, but it shouldn't be treated like she kicked a five year old in the stomach or something.

    I agree though, her remake of Sweet child of mine was terrible. She turned a sweet rockin tune into a pop song. Blech!!

    I love GNR and she butchered that song.

    At 14 years old you talk about GnR like you have been following them for years. You do know the last time they played a concert, you were in diapers? It's great that you respect the old school bands, but don't take it personal when someone makes a bad cover.

    Also, GnR had to give her permission before she could release that song. Just think of all the money they are making on royalties for the song. Crow is selling a lot of albums.

    So i have the choice of Axl Rose moaning like a goat in heat or Sheryl Crow whining like an obese woman on the rag? Wow, I think i'll just not listen to that song period.

    I know what you mean. a Dylan song isn't something that can just be covered. he's my fav music artist ever.
    but I don't see why anyone should be mad about it or anything. just keep listening to Dylan's version if you don't like Avril's. me, I think it's a pretty mellow cover.
    and then again didn't she contribute that song to the Peace Songs cd? which was for such a good cause. it was cool of her.
    if there's any cover I don't personally like, it's gotta be Chantal Krevazuk's cover of Redemption song. it just doesn't seem too fitting, and OLP's over of Imagine doesn't do anything either. but I'm not mad about it, now c'mon

    Sometimes covers come out right, sometimes they come out totally wrong. Actually, the latter seems to be happening more than the former. Good example is Hilary Duff's cover of "My Generation". It was modified to fit modern pop, and the Bass-solo was replaced by a syntheziser-noise. Also, the line "Hope I de before I get old" changed to "Hope I don't die before I get old". A line completely not fitting in with the rest.

    But if you don't like the covers, than the best option is not to listen to them, and forget about them. And honestly, there are some good covers, like the Byrds' "Mr. Tambourine Man".

    My god your 15 years old, Your user name is about peace and love,
    I don't think you know anything at all about music, peace, or love.
    Now go lay down until you grow up.
