Best/Worst cover not on the tribute album
There seems to be lots and lots of cover versions out there - Most seem to be of Forever Young? I am sure there are a lot more than I have heard - but which ones are the best and worst?
The best - I think the B-charme cover of FY is pretty good and the cover of Impossible Dream by Marshall and Alexander is also pretty good (of course, nobody does it quite like Marian!) The worst would have to be that reggae version of FY from History - or maybe it was that live version of Big In Japan by And One - its a toss up, they are both pretty bad! ***This life is expensive, but at least it comes with a free trip around the sun!*** |

The best and most original cover I have heard of an AV song is probably Big in Japan by Guano Apes
The worst is Forever young by Axl Rudi. That sucks! |

I think every cover made is special both for the artist and Alphaville.

Marian once said that he thinks of Karel as one of his favorite singers.
I really like the music in this cover.... but Karel's voice... everyone I have talked to about it thinks his voice sounds kinda funny! Quote:
