Yes LMC are revamping another classic. This is pretty pointless to be honest. It sounds like a hardcore track from the 90's slowed down a lot and it's not in your face enough. The vocals are too low in the mix too. Not sure if these are new vocals by some bimbo or it is Annie Lennox, the vocal is altered but it sounds like her. It's a big tip to be hit apparently!

They have to get permission from the songwriters to do this. The songwriters do not always give their permission.
Some of them have lost credibility in my opinion by allowing these things to be done to their song. Steve Winwood, etc...
Noel Gallagher wouldn't permit a version of Wonderwall (I think it was) by David Wrench (though he authorised the version by Mike Flowers Pops. The Ryan Adams version was similar enough to the original so it did not need authorisation).

Neil:
Correction - I think you'll find it was Radiohead who wouldn't let David Wrench cover one of their songs. It was for some sort of compilation. I think the song was 'Creep'.

Yeah, you're right, it was Creep.
There was someone else who wanted to do Wonderwall but the version was rejected by Noel Gallagher.

I used to like the Utah Saints version of "Little Bird" that was on the original Annie Lennox 12".

Were they even together then? I just remember something about the Smurfs doing a covers album in about '95 and Noel refusing to let them cover "Wonderwall"... I could be very wrong though... |
