muggle not Posted October 26, 2012 Author Share Posted October 26, 2012 Joan Jett and the Heartbreakers version of "I love Rock 'n Roll" Who did the original? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
poppy Posted October 28, 2012 Share Posted October 28, 2012 (edited) I Put A Spell On You. Originally by Screamin' Jay Hawkins, this has been covered by so many people. But it's hard to choose between Nina Simone, CCR and Joe Cocker. This is the one I choose for a cruisy, rainy Sunday night.

It is getting close to Halloween. And I think I hear something scurrying across the floor while I am in bed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kreader Posted November 4, 2012 Share Posted November 4, 2012 I've been wondering about that song If I were a boy, I've heard two versions. Reba McEntire and there's Beyoncé which one came first and which one do you prefer best? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Karsa Orlong Posted November 21, 2012 Share Posted November 21, 2012 (edited) Each to their own, but there's no doubt that the Quo version has exceeded the Fogerty version in popularity. It probably doesn't help, for me, that Fogerty's voice sounds like someone strangling a cat This one's so bad it's hilarious: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EReWi009IL4 ETA: Really like this one, but then I love the original, too Edited November 21, 2012 by Karsa Orlong Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was at that performance too!!! It was awesome, wasn't it? We were there both nights - they only did that on the second night, so we got two completely different shows. My hubby was dead lucky - he got to go backstage and meet the band afterwards. I was so jealous I almost burst! But one good thing did happen - hubby asked John Petrucci if there was any chance he could smuggle him out of there for me, and JP actually sent a message to tell me "Hi" and wish I could have come backstage too (it was a competition prize, which was why I didn't get to go back too).
