I was thinking what people thought about song remakes and maybe list some of their favorites or some that just were horribly redone.
To name a couple I really like:
Pretty Woman - Roy Orbson and redone by Van Halen
Live and Let Die - Paul McCartney and redone by Guns & Roses

The Bangles did a cover of Hazy Shade of Winter for the movie Less Than Zero. I like it better than the original.

Re: Song Remakes
Fuck yeah! The goofy keyboard shit converts nicely to guitar. A3 is one of my favorite bands--used to go see them in la at every opportunity. It is a little lost without Blondie though!
