i dont fancy Il Divo's version of Pour Que Tu M'aimes Encore. i cant remember what other remakes i dont like lol

 

Just heard it today... The song itself isn't to bad, actually I like it the way they are singing it, it's a complete different approach to it. However, It isn't a good thing to let such a song sing by people who can't speak French nor understand the language...

 

So indeed, it is a bad cover :D

Umm, one of the singers in Il Divo IS French! :wink:

 

However, I do agree with you that it is a bad cover! :)

I found it out allready... However if you hear the song you shouldn't tell... However I like several songs of Il Dovo, I even have a cd of then in my car ;)

 

But this wasn't just right...

 

 

On the other side, I really like the version of Lara Fabian... It's offcourse not as good as the original but it has a nice touch.

Ok, some others:

 

Hillary Duff: My Generation... Never heard such bad cover ever...

 

Dolly Parton: Stairway to heaven... Damn, she's a good singer but it is really bad.

 

Phil Collins: True Colors... I like Phil and his music very much but nothing can beat the original from Cyndi Lauper

 

Pussycat Dolls: Tainted Love... Maybe I need to review my opinion about the worst cover ever... This is really terrible

 

And last but not least

 

Goo Goo Dolls: Give a little bit... The Goo Goo Dolls are famous about the fantastic song "Iris", unfortunatelu their cover of Supertramps "Give a little bit" is really horrible...

Ronan Keating's cover of that song was totally unnecessary :nono: I can't believe they actually released that as a single too! :doh:

 

LOL that version of ABM in Bridget Jones was also bad! they should have used Céline's one ;)

what do you say about Clay Aiken and his version (awful, by the way) of Celine's "Because you love me"

His version starts from the chorus, and then hits the first verse...ouch, such a kick in the b*lls

Since Dhena started it, she and not I should be the subject of criticism for this post of mine :innocent: :P

 

Some songs that Celine should NEVER have covered:

 

1. I Wish

2. Alone (sorry, Davey 'oney)

3. Feliz Navidad ... oh God! what was she thinking?? :blink:

4. The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face

5. At Last ( I adore Etta James' version)

6. Fever (the BIGGEST :doh: )

 

 

these are some which I don't like and it's just MY opinion.

 

 

Personally I don't agree with this but I'm happy you spoke your mind on what you thought. Kudos to you. :yes:

 

 

Celine's version of TFTEISYF is better than Roberta's :glare:

 

And Leona Lewis couldn't sing that song to save her life :evil:

 

Feliz Navidad was brilliant!

At last was very good as well though :innocent:

"...It's the circle of life. You gotta look forward. Two days during the year there's nothing you can do about: yesterday and tomorrow. Today is a great day." - Celine Dion, People.

:blink: Nicole was super duper in Moulin Rouge ! What I remember was I really loved that song u didn't like :pinch:

 

Lemme see :glare: Yeah I have it... IL Divo (PQTME)!!!

and just a thought (if someone's ever gonna do a cover of My Heart Will Go On (DAMN) :nono:

 

 

I totally agree! If ANYONE ever does a cover of MHWGO, :nono: ooooooh I'll hunt them down and stab them!

 

I'm sorry everyone, I'm never this violent, but I think everyone can agree that MHWGO is strictly Céline property. :blowup:

 

Anyways, The cover I absolutely cant stand is, CCR's "Rolling on the River". But I love all the rest of CCR! :wub:

DO NOT STEAL MY SIGNATURE

"It's hard in a recording studio, because I'm infront of a microphone, I have to imagine all of you and then I'm able to sing the songs for you...Now I'm still infront of a microphone, with all of you right infront of me, to see all of your faces, That's why I still do it!"

My Humps-Alanis Morisette

LOL i guess it was just a parody and i think it was hillarious. :sofunny: i love alanis morissette's brave attempt to do her own "slow" version of such a stupid song. better than BEP's at least for me. :D
