Cover songs...

[Agent_Embryo]

Me and my cousins are playing at my mother's birthdayparty, and we'd like som suggestions of good cover-songs to play. Can you help me?

[Knothead]

Sure. "Gloria" by Van Morrison and Them.

Only three chords, you can't go wrong...then, if it looks like the crowd is rockin' you can go completely gonzo and resurrect Jim Morrison's salacious take on it...and if that turns out to be a mistake, you can make a quick getaway, because the song only needs drums, bass, and lead guitar!

It depends...What kind of music does she like?

You think Back in Black by AC/DC is too much? :P

[Mike]

That's a good song. How about some lighter stuff like Billy Idol maybe?

Hey, we play White Wedding. We're a little heavier than Billy is though. Muahahah!!

You think Back in Black by AC/DC is too much?

Maybe not.. depends on the mom.. Personally it's my favorite AC/DC CD.... but then I only have 4 ...


What's a cover song?

[Agent_Embryo]

A cover song is a song the band hasn't written themselves...a song made by another artist before.

And Back in Black was considered...not decided yet tho...

So far:
Chuck Berry - Johnny B Good
Bon Jovi - Livin' on a prayer (always works)
A version of Hit me baby one more time (maybe)
and perhaps Millencolin's "Penguins and Polarbears"

...we should have a set of at least ten songs...so keep 'em coming.
