Lucas Posted July 2, 2017 Share Posted July 2, 2017 This could be looked at a few different ways: 1) A song that you like just the way it is, however, you never really cared for the artist .. 2) A song that you find appealing, however, the final product would be more enjoyable if another artist did it .. I never cared for Peter Gabriel, but I really like "Here Comes The Flood" - exactly the way he did it .. I wish he'd have done more like it as far as his vocal approach - the usual pretense isn't there .. The other example might be "Lucky Strike" from Maroon 5 .. The bones are there - it's a good song - but the band just has no appeal to me .. Dreamcatcher's cover is great - I love it .. Anyways, tell me what I am missing from Peter Gabriel - I know he's gotta have some other songs that I'd like .. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Permanent-Rush Posted July 2, 2017 Share Posted July 2, 2017 Closer-The Chainsmokers Good song but not so great band 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnnyBlaze Posted July 2, 2017 Share Posted July 2, 2017 Red Hot Chili Peppers: Higher Ground I much prefer Stevie Wonder's original version so it's a little surprising to me that I can like this song. Also, I almost always dislike/hate Anthony Kiedis' vocals but in this one, I give him a pass. Instrumentally, everyone covers it respectably. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

invisible airwave Posted July 2, 2017 Share Posted July 2, 2017 "When I Come Around" - Green Day"Ray of Light" - Madonna I love Frozen from that album and I don't care who knows. That's a great song still to this day. Her best songs have always been her ballads. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HemiBeers Posted July 2, 2017 Share Posted July 2, 2017 simple kind of man - lynryd skynyrdflirtin with disaster - molly hatchet I usually don't like southern redneck rock, but these are two exceptions where they hit it out of the park. The dualing guitar solos on flirtin are epic. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Entre_Perpetuo Posted July 2, 2017 Share Posted July 2, 2017 Closer-The Chainsmokers Good song but not so great band That would fall under the category of songs I despise from bands that I still despise for me. That said, the song they did with Coldplay is bearable enough for me to lightly enjoy; for this I blame Coldplay. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Both songs I became aware of because of a TV show. I'm not sure how much more I would get into Gabriel's music overall, but those 2 songs are A+. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LakesideShark Posted July 3, 2017 Share Posted July 3, 2017 I never really liked Bruce Springsteen much at all, but I do LOVE his song "I'm On Fire". Mainly because I didn't actually know it was him when I first heard it on a radio station... 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fordgalaxy Posted July 3, 2017 Share Posted July 3, 2017 Hm... Never been a big Nirvana fan, but Bloom is excellent. Also Heart Shaped Box. It's In Bloom, fyi. For me one that sprang to mind was Seven Nation Army by the White Stripes. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rutlefan Posted July 3, 2017 Share Posted July 3, 2017 (edited) Daughter by Pearl Jam. Love the song but never warmed to the group after hearing 10 back in the day. I think it's an Eddie singing style thing mostly, not their overall sound. (Like Better Man and Elderly Woman Behind The Counter In A Small Town too, so maybe I need to check out more post-10 Pearl Jam.) Clocks by Coldplay. Heard the song before I knew anything else about/by the band so it didn't have to overcome any bias. Now I don't think I would get past the first few notes of the vocals before bailing. Strong Enough by Cheryl Crow. Don't dislike Cheryl just have no interest apart from this song (and Every Day is a Winding Road) Edited July 3, 2017 by Rutlefan 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
