Stereo

Almost every band/artist will cover another band/artist at some point of their career. Some would cover exactly to the tune. Some would give it an entirely new beat. Some collaborate with the original band/artist. And some would just sample a part and make a living out of it (Vanilla Ice, for example). The fact is, remaking a song that was done by another band/artist is really a non-issue. It is how they cover it that counts. But I’m sure you already know that.

I stand neither side of the fense when it comes to covers. There are a few covers that are actually better than the original, and some are just simply awful.

For this new category, I am going to start with the song Walking with a Ghost because it is currently on my playlist and it’s quite catchy, even with its simple and quite repetitive lyrics. Originally by Tegan & Sara, covered by The White Stripes. I’ll dig for older tracks in future posts. Enjoy.

Walking with a Ghost

No matter which way you go
No matter which way you stay

You’re out of my mind
Out of my mind
Out of my mind
Out of my mind

I was walking with a ghost
I said please
Please don’t insist

I was walking with a ghost
I said please
Please don’t insist

No matter which way you go
No matter which way you stay

You’re out of my mind
Out of my mind
Out of my mind
Out of my mind

I was walking with a ghost
I said please, please don’t insist

Out of my mind

I was walking with a ghost
I was walking with a ghost

Out of my mind (I say please)
Out of my mind
Out of my mind (I say please)
Out of my mind
