The Dirtbombs - "Living For The City" (Stevie Wonder)



This one feels alot more grimy/inner-city than the original.

Zakk Wylde - NIB. This goes to show talent can overcome anything and make any instrument sound amazing. Dude sounds better with a children's toy than 99.9% of the population with thousands of dollars worth of equipment. :lol:

"Mandy" by Barry Manilow, originally "Brandy" by Scott English.

I recently heard the original, and am stunned at how very, very bad it is.

Spoiler: show


Apparently, Clive Davis ordered the name change to avoid confusion with the recent hit "Brandy (You're A Fine Girl)" by The Looking Glass.
