Mmmm shows your arrogance & disregard for other opinion im no way a fred durst fan of any kind in fact more a who fan, i mearely said his attempt was good better than any of his other mumbles but he kept the song in its original format as such, seems the judgement of the man himself is reflecting on his ability for that song, suggest use ears rather than eyes, thats what music should be about.
I could say how rubbish listening Chris Farlows version of 'Out of Time' was utter crap ruined a fantastic song, penned by the stones whom did a suburb version tho passed to Farlow with stones doing the backing vocals the soul version of it doesn't match the stones one, same could be said for 'Ruby Tuesday' by Melanie who murdered it in cockney drawl as did Marrianne Faithful with 'As tears go by', utter classics along with their many back catalogue in their own right orchestrated & sung how it should be - yet passed over to wannabes to destroy it BUT at the end of the day they get the royalties & song writing credits & rights, so i'supose some artists are not bothered by how good or worse covers can be. But thats my opinion some others may prefer their versions more, I think there are many worse senarios but again my opinion is on hearing the song not by judgement of the visual.
As i keep saying MY OPINION i think u miss the object of the thread, whom openly asks for opinions, not righteousness
. U seem to forget music is individual - thats why its fantastic!
