amyja89 Posted March 20, 2008 at 11:32 AM Posted March 20, 2008 at 11:32 AM At this present time the song bugging me most is One Day I'll Fly Away, originally by Randy Crawford and then covered by Nicole Kidman in Moulin Rouge. The original has so much soul and magic, but I think the Kidman version is horrible! She sucks all the soul out of the song and makes it boring! Other covers I can't stand are: RHCP's version of Stevie Wonder's Higher Ground, don't get me started! Madonna's version of American Pie, OMG!Lindsay Lohan's version of Stevie Nick's Edge Of Seventeen, musical MURDER! Which covers get under your skin? Quote

CellyDee87 Posted June 15, 2008 at 11:28 AM Posted June 15, 2008 at 11:28 AM Jessica Simpsons version of Robbie Williams Angels ... she killed it! Omg that is what I was thinking as soon as I read the title of this thread. Her version is just awful, terrible can't believe they would give such a beautiful song to someone like that :doh: It just made a mockery of the song Quote
CellyDee87 Posted June 15, 2008 at 11:33 AM Posted June 15, 2008 at 11:33 AM I LOVE Celine obviously, but her version of What a Wonderful World just doesn't emotionally grab me like Louis Armstrong's , the song is very significant and special for me but I don't really like her version. I was gutted though watching the footage of the song the day her father Adhemar passed away oh my goodness heartbreaking Quote
Jacqui Posted June 15, 2008 at 12:29 PM Posted June 15, 2008 at 12:29 PM I won't be mean and post about what I don't like, but are you guys serious about Jessica's version of Angels?? I think she did an amazing job, honestly! She sings it with a kind of passion Robbie never had, and hit some incredible notes! Quote
Alex_Incognito Posted June 15, 2008 at 03:04 PM Posted June 15, 2008 at 03:04 PM Leona Lewis' "I Will Be."Avril's versions (I know she wrote it) kicks its butt. Quote "People pay 20-25 dollars to see you."- Céline Dion, 1990
dj4celine Posted June 16, 2008 at 03:17 AM Posted June 16, 2008 at 03:17 AM I kinda agree with Jacqui on "Angels". Even I seem to prefer Jessica's version to Robbie'e And Alex, Leona's version of "I Will Be" surely lacked the passion Avril had... but it's good to hear both of them sing that beautiful song Leona's and even Celine's version of TFTEISYFWestlife - "Home" ... seriously, what were they thinking?? Even with the alterations, it was a farce to Buble's original. There are some more... just not in my head right now Quote
CellyDee87 Posted June 16, 2008 at 12:24 PM Posted June 16, 2008 at 12:24 PM Westlife - "Home" ... seriously, what were they thinking?? Even with the alterations, it was a farce to Buble's original. I didn't even know they covered this but I'm a BIG Buble fan so I don't even want to hear this... And nobody should try and cover Josh Groban songs... period. Westlife and You Raised Me Up = no good Quote
Edwin Posted June 16, 2008 at 01:15 PM Posted June 16, 2008 at 01:15 PM Ilse DeLange - I Will Always Love YouLara Fabian - Pour Que Tu M'aimes Encore The latter one bugs the hell outta me, because it seems like she speed talks through it.

Black Kitten Posted June 20, 2008 at 07:37 AM Posted June 20, 2008 at 07:37 AM i know this is a sin here in the forum, but i wish celine never touched What A Wonderful World. i really adore the original version of this song, and nobody will do justice to this song ever. sorry, celine Quote
dj4celine Posted June 20, 2008 at 09:20 AM Posted June 20, 2008 at 09:20 AM Since Dhena started it, she and not I should be the subject of criticism for this post of mine Some songs that Celine should NEVER have covered: 1. I Wish2. Alone (sorry, Davey 'oney)3. Feliz Navidad ... oh God! what was she thinking?? 4. The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face5. At Last ( I adore Etta James' version)6. Fever (the BIGGEST ) these are some which I don't like and it's just MY opinion. Quote

Si J'etais Quelqu'un Posted June 21, 2008 at 05:26 AM Posted June 21, 2008 at 05:26 AM I'd say Lindsay's "Edge Of Seventeen" was a real disaster. Bigger than Hurricane Katrina, bigger than the tsunami in 2004, bigger even than the earthquake in China. Never cover Stevie Nicks. Ever. Quote http://oi39.tinypic.com/dzjgva.jpg
SensationalCeline Posted June 21, 2008 at 09:20 PM Posted June 21, 2008 at 09:20 PM Leona's version of TFTEISYF was horrible compared to Celine's. I love the notes she hits on this song. But Leona butchered it. Quote http://i250.photobucket.com/albums/gg280/spoiledrottenbrat4063/Celine%20Dion/CELINESIGGY.jpg

incognito Posted June 21, 2008 at 09:46 PM Posted June 21, 2008 at 09:46 PM Every single cover than Westlife has done has been a crime against music. They should go on trial. Quote
