themusicaddict's Great Cover Songs Part 2

Hello,

Thanks to theguardian.com for some of the cover song ideas.

First up a couple of a covers by the amazing Adele:

First up her cover of the sang by Billy Joel/ written by Bob Dylan classic "To Make You Feel My Love":

Believe me Adele's cover of The SteelDrivers' "If It Hadn't Been For Love" is a lot better than their version. But I'm so glad they wrote this song. :

Gary Jules' very mellow cover of Tears For Fears "Mad World":

I really wasn't going for a theme here, but here's another Tears For Fears cover. This is Dead on TV's very rocking version of "Pale Shelter":

This song is so much better than it has any right to be. This is a song taken from the Andrew Lloyd Webber play "Jesus Christ Superstar". "Heaven On Their Minds":

This is one of the very few performances I remember from "American Idol". This song is from one of Webber's lesser known plays "Starlight Express". Syesha Mercado's cover of "One Rock and Roll Too Many":

The Fugees excellent take on Roberta Flack's "Killing Me Softly":



Lauryn Hill made the right decision when she left The Fugees', too bad she hasn't released more solo music. "The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill" is brilliant, this is one of the many highlights off that CD. This is her cover of Frankie Valli's "Can't Take My Eyes Off Of You":

From the 80's vampire classic "The Lost Boys": Echo and the Bunnymen's cover of The Doors "People Are Strange":

Billy Idol's cover of "L.A. Woman":

The White Stripes cover of Son House's "Death Letter Blues":

Now here's Joss Stone's cover of The White Stripes "Fell In Love With A Girl", she changed the title slightly:

The Red Hot Chili Pepper's cover of the Mr. Stevie Wonder's "Higher Ground":

One of my favorite covers of all-time, RHCP's take on The Ohio Players "Love Rollercoaster":



This is a cover I just stumbled across today, the Pepper's take on David Bowie "Suffragette City":
