The Acoustic Theatre  vs. Reel Big Fish vs. Skindred

 

The Acoustic Theatre:

Reel Big Fish:

Skindred:

Oh the disharmony! Much like Harlan County there are no neutrals here. It is your solemn responsibility to decide which cover song prevails. In other words … Which Side Are You On?!!?

Johnny Cash vs. Reel Big Fish

Johnny Cash:

Reel Big Fish:

Oh the disharmony! Much like Harlan County there are no neutrals here. Only one cover tune will live to play another day and it is your solemn responsibility to decide which one prevails. So tell me … Which Side Are You On?!!?

Also, keep in mind that if you should spontaneously self-actualize while playing a cover then you could – and probably should – nominate it for Top 10 (i.e. “Impeccable”) consideration.

Liza Minnelli:

Liza struts like Jagger in this clip! (But is that something you really want to see?)

Frank Sinatra:

Say what you will about Ole Blue Eyes but not many have, or ever had, a voice like his (nor could anyone quite sport a Trilby like the man).

Nico vs. Reel Big Fish

space

Nico:

Nothing quite says “New York” like Nico!

(This is the short version of Nico’s “New York, New York”. For those inclined there is a seven-minute version but I’d suggest you brew a cup of Joe before indulging.)

Reel Big Fish:

One of their best covers, which says something considering the band has covered at least 30 tunes!

Oh the disharmony! Much like Harlan County there are no neutrals here. Only one cover tune will live to play another day and it is your solemn responsibility to decide which one prevails. So tell me … Which Side Are You On?!!?

Also, keep in mind that if you should spontaneously self-actualize while playing a cover then you could – and probably should – nominate it for Top 10 (i.e. “Impeccable”) consideration.
