Topic: cover of paint it black Return to archive
12-29-02 09:19 AM
egon normally i hate it when bands/singers do covers of stones songs, and i have never liked any of the covers.
(except bette midler - beast of burden)

a definite low point must have been barbie doll doing satisfaction. (jezus!)

but i recently downloaded the vanessa carlton album
and i must say i do like her version of paint it black.

EthanWickedAsHeSeems A band called Gob did a version of PIB in 99 to go with a movie called "Stir of Echoes." I think this is the best cover of PIB ever.

VoodooChileInWOnderl The best version of Paint it Black is by Patti Smith. In fact she couldn't add that one in the compilation album "Land (1975-2002)", but she tried.

Also Eric Burdon version is great, that one is webcast often in the radio channels 3 and 4 at the top of the board.
