Post song that were better than the original
It can be a parody or a cover or remix or something else.
[url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N9qYF9DZPdw]This parody[/url] is a good example.

Please post cover/parody/remix that have at least reached the million view otherwise it's just your personal opinion and not really a common consensus.

[quote=CastilloHero]But the original always captures what the artist wanted the song to be...

The video for the original was really cool.

I just always felt like this song should've been sung by a girl and Christina Grimmie did a really great job.
Oh, also

Now I actually love [b]both[/b] versions of that song but a lot of people who don't like the original, love his so I thought I'd share <3
Plus, I love Noah so I had to post this so everyone else can love him too <3

I like these
@Kushied:
I am listening to all her covers. They are so beautiful.
I hope she gets what she deserves in the future.
[quote=SaltyBlocks]I don't understand. Do you think that songs lose their quality overtime or what? Do you base a song's greatness or mediocrity solely on how popular it got and and how well received it was to the public at the time of release?
I know that songs and song quality are so painfully arbitrary but I can't see why one song would be better than another for only a certain period of time. Frankly if you like a remix more than the original today you should be able to appreciate the remix a decade from now[/quote]
no and no
i am also confused
that is why i asked the ts what i asked him

[quote=SaltyBlocks]How can a song stop being better than another as time goes on?[/quote]
things can change over time
[url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fuBRqKCLOlU]You know it.[/url]
good idea! we should all post songs that were better than the original
when you say 'were better than the original' do you mean songs that were better but are not better anymore?
