Original v. Cover: Faith

[NSL]

Faith is a song we (mostly) can all recall from our youth. It's fun, it's easy to dance to, and as much as you might hate to admit it, you liked George Michael. The video is good, the song is catchy, and that's always a formula for success.

There's a reason I didn't say anything about the cover. At times it can be OK to listen to, but it's just not as good. I figured I'd make the thread in case anyone wanted to listen.

Do yourselves a favor, and listen to some George Michael.

How Limp Bizkit got noticed for their cover of this song is beyond me. It's a terrible cover, though what can you expect from a group that's incapable of not making terrible music? The only enjoyable part of their cover is when Durst attempts to sing the verses, and obviously he doesn't exactly have the vocal chops of a guy like George Michael.

Easy choice here for Faith. Plus whenever I hear it I think of a scene from one of my favorite films, The Rules of Attraction.

Neither. I hate the song. But at least the Limp Bizkit version was fun to make fun of, giving it the win. George Michael made perhaps the most pussy assed song in history, and Limp Bizkit some how made it horrible. Now get your ass up.
