That is absolute filth.

What the f*** is wrong with pop stars today - out to make a quick buck regardless of who's song they obliterate in the process. Spineless bastards!

Did you say the same when Rush released Feedback 062802puke_prv.gif

 

And 2.gif never did any cover verions in their early days either did they?

 

Once a song is in the public domain, then it's fair game.

Time Stand Still isn't in the 'public domain'. The artist has to get permission from the original artist/record company to release a new version. So blame Rush for letting this happen.

i do like nelly. her voice is unique. i just don't like covers. that's why i've never tried feedback...

goodpost.gif While I don't think that ALL cover songs are bad, I too could not bring myself to buy Feedback. no.gif

But then I discovered an interesting legal fact: Once a song has been commercially released by an artist, that artist's song may be re-recorded and released by anyone who chooses to do so. Provided that  they pay proper fees/royalties directly to the song's copyright holder.

 

Think I'm off to do me a batch of Rush covers smile.gif
