Wednesday Covered; Take a chance on me - ABBA (Erasure)

A quicky.
Last weekend I watched the Mamma Mia movie with Meryl Streep; and I have to say = I really enjoyed it….
BUT; I can imagine that some people would have problems with the “fluffyness”….
In my defend I have to say; I have been to the musical in Toronto/Canada….. so - to me it was a [...]

Wednesday Covered; Ayo Technology – 50cent(feat.Timberlake) (Milow)

This time a very recent cover.
Originally made by 50cent – featuring Justin Timberlake.
Partly done by Timbaland – a #5 in the US Billboard….. the success 50cent hardly needed….

And I was REALLY surprised….
WOW….. what a good cover
As Q Magazine wrote;  “sound[ing] more like a [...]

Wednesday Covered; Hurt by Nine Inch Nails (Johnny Cash)

Most of the time; the cover is not as great as the original….
With this song; a lot of people even do not know that this is a cover… !!!
