No! It cannot be. Do you have proof of this? If so, what will become of his music then? :(
Oh, ha ha ha ha. I get it. You have a typo. You meant to say "Yanno Beethoven is deaf, right?"

Aside from The Beatles, The Offspring, random Dubstep and Progressive House and a bunch of other stuff, these stand out.

I'm a total Springsteen nerd:



The song by itself is just "OK", to me it's the video which gives me the chills.

If you haven't experienced The Boss live, maybe you won't be so impressed.... interested to hear your thoughts.

Dream Baby Dream definitely doesn't work for me. I keep waiting for the song to start but the whole thing sounds like the first 5 seconds of a song repeated for 5 minutes. I also don't like the vocal style.

I think my favorite Springsteen song is I'm On Fire. I love the original and every cover I hear...seems like it's almost impossible to destroy.

After typing that I went to look up covers to try to remember whose I heard for the first time the other day and loved. While searching for it I saw that Graveyard BBQ did a cover. Those guys have some great songs so I excitedly loaded it on Youtube...it was awful. :lol:

I loves me some Springsteen. The Clarence Clemons tribute during Tenth Avenue Freeze Out during shows hits me in the feels every single time I experience it.


Every. Single. Time.

Lately I've been alternating between Paul Simon and Stone Sour. They're quite different from each other, but I like them.

Great song.

I just realized...this would be a particularly good song for enjoying good audio equipment.

not impressed, and way to rip off a classic, or try to... :? :evil: :roll: :|
So I was listening to this podcast when I remembered that post. You'd hate it:
http://coverville.com/
Tens of thousands of ripoffs of classics.

Especially these episodes:
