So I saw a preview for this show the other day, probably while watching an infomercial or a dancing with the stars re run, and thought it was a joke. In the end, it is an actual show that will be embarrassing airing in Canada Sunday September 18 ... But who am I to judge?
Check out a couple of my (ahem) favourite auditions...
This actually did make me think though... cover songs are either amazing (sometimes even better than the original) OR ridiculous (cue too many american idol moments)
So I decided to share a couple of covers that I've heard recently.
NOTE: Under normal circumstances the following original version of these songs make me LMAO because of their use in Bulworth and 13 going on 30 the worst movies of all time.
BUT in the case of the first I get shiiivveeerrrss its so good and in the case of the second...it just makes me remember when i was 14 and listening to bands like good charlotte and thinking they were the coolest.
Islands in the Stream - Constantines & Feist
Fun fact : This Bee Gees-penned song was originally meant for Marvin Gaye but instead Kenny Rogers and Dolly Parton hit #1 with it in 1983.
Magic School Bus anyone...check out "These Kids Wear Crowns" covering I Wanna Dance With Somebody
