Have you ever heard a good cover of an AV song ?
Maybe it´s just me, but I have as of yet never heard a good cover of an Alphaville song! DJ Space, Karel Gott and Guano Apes is not worth anything in my opinion. Maybe it´s because I see it as some kind of "blasphemy" if someone dare to cover a song by Alphaville. If they decide to do it, the version has to be extremely good. But anyway I doubt anyone can make an Alphaville song better than AV!!!

you're right poul,
this exactly why there will never be a good cover version to alphaville - because they are the best !!! :-) Adi. @ville - forever and ever. |

Ha ha Joachim (of Artwork)
Good one! I look very much forward to hearing "We heard the call" and hope that I afterwards can change my opinion. I´m sure that all of you have tried to do the covers in the "AV spirit".

I´ll try to be there for a chat some time during the evening.
And Joachim, I really like the sound of the 2 Artwork songs that I have downloaded. Will there be more? Perhaps full versions?

Wow, last post was made in 2000.
I have heard a lot of AV covers, in the best case it was 'nice song' but never better than the real stuff.... Maybe AV should made the covers themself...

"Japan is weit" by Sandra is probably my favourite AV cover.

True, that is a very good cover. One of the few...
