QuoteThey were the opening act for U2 on the Monday gig at Croke ParkOriginally Posted by shedite
Went to see The Bravery last night in Boston with a friend. I'd only ever heard one of their songs so was ready to go when they played that. But then, out of nowhere, they played U2's An Cat Dubh. Legends!
By the way, some Liverpool band were supporting them - The Dead 60's. If ya get a chance, chek out their song "Riot on the Radio". Very catchy. Kinda like Franz Ferdinand type of song.
The glass isn't half full or half empty it's just too damn big!
what does An Cat Dubh mean in fact ? Is it Gaelge ?
I have a great version of Matchbox 20 doing Time after time by Cyndi Lauper
I got Replublic of Loose doing Ignition remix and Juno Falls doing cry me a river, a also like Jamie Callum's everlasting love
I love covers me!!!
Yup, "The Black Cat"
I have odd covers including Van Halen "Pretty Woman", 'Whenever Whereever' by Mundy, Placebo "Daddy Cool", Jimmi Hendrix "Sgt Pepper", Ian Browne "Thriller"
Good ones include Velvet Revolver "Bodies" (Sex Pistols), any one by Johny Cash, Fun Lovin Criminals "All the time in the world" & Marilyn Manson Tainted Love, Bell X1 "Volcano".
As I say, we're just young & a bit nieve.
The "Even better than the real thing" albums 1 and 2 from the Ray D'arcy show have some great covers.Favorites of mine are Roesy doing a version of Blu Cantrell and Sean Pauls "Breath" and The Frames doing a version of Britney Spears "Everytime"
There's some good 'uns there alright D2 Red
As I say, we're just young & a bit nieve.
How about Something Happens' version of Madonna's "Borderline"?
or "On Broadway" covered by Gary Numan?
Me First and the Gimme Gimmes. Anything by them is a good/surprising cover
God
Or Whitney's Cover of Dolly Parton which namechecks yourself...Me First and the Gimme Gimmes. Anything by them is a good/surprising cover
EnDai will Always Love You....
The White Stripes version of "Joleen" is great,also Oasis doing The Who's "My Generation"
"All I have in this world is my balls and my word,and I don't break em for noone"
Or Simply Red's cover of the Frantic Elevators song " Holding Back The Years"
... and my last suggestion for tonight is
The Teardrop Explodes cover version of "(I Read It In) Books" by The Crucial Three
Saw Ocean Colour Scene inthe point a few years back and they did a deadly version of The Small Faces' Song of a Baker
Excellent,i have it on the IpodI had Oasis with Eddy Vedder singing "Daytripper" on my mp3 player until it died on me
REM doing Syd Barrett's (Ex Pink Floyd) Dark World is my fav cover at the moment.
They did it with Ocean Colour Scene too, it was on the B-sides, sea-sides and Free-rides album!!!I had Oasis with Eddy Vedder singing "Daytripper" on my mp3 player until it died on me
From Roger Waters etc. The Wall Concert in Berlin in 1990 which I recently borrowed on DVD..
