Why not? I'm going to get flack over this first pick, that I know. Starting this one of with Jay-Z's version of Alphaville's "Forever Young." Don't care, this song blows, and kills a perfect set of memories. Don't like it, get your own blog.
Archive, covering The Smiths' "Girlfriend in a Coma." This version is probably the most unemotional effort to date. Hard to top this one.
Next up, Suspiria, with Depeche Mode's "Behind the Wheel." Not bad. Kinda grew on me. Wait, they sang. Darn it. Next.
At least that was better than Jazzhole's "Enjoy the Silence." Look that one up, I dare you.
Ok, now we're cooking. David Hasselhoff, covering Madonna's "La Isla Bonita." Like a sexy Shatner. I can almost see this crappy video in my head, gauzy lens, bellbottoms and the smoulder.
Finally, there is the Immortal William Hung. Balls as big as churchbells, and two more albums than I have. Here he is butchering Elton John's "Rocketman." The backup music track sounds straight from a bloody karaoke machine. Didn't even rate session players. Awesome.
Go out and conquer. William did. Have a great week.
