Untouchable Songs

Fri, 01 Oct 2004 16:06:11 +0000

The other day Im listening to the radio when I hear this song on the radio. It sounds really bad.I turn it up and its "Imagine".....only it aint by Lennon. Its by A Perfect Circle....and its goddam awful. Listening to it just pisses me off. In my view I think its kind of a travesty that they took such a great song and ruined it.

So the reason of this thread is : what songs shouldn't be messed with/ covered? What songs go you think should go by untouched?

I remember a few years ago Layne Staley and some other band guys came out with their version of "The Wall". Another peice of shit. Why can't they leave well enough alone and come up with their own shit.

Well i guess he wasn't Too Tough to Die

Quote:LOS ANGELES, California (AP) -- Johnny Ramone, guitarist and co-founder of the seminal punk band The Ramones that influenced a generation of rockers, has died. He was 55.

Ramone, who had been fighting a five-year battle with prostate cancer, died in his sleep Wednesday afternoon at his Los Angeles home surrounded by friends and family, said the band's longtime artistic director Arturo Vega.

\"He was the guy with a strategy. He was the guy who not only looked after the band's interest but he also was their defender,\" Vega said in a telephone interview from New York.

Ramone, whose birth name is John Cummings, had been hospitalized in June at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center.

Johnny Ramone was one of the original members of the Ramones, whose songs \"I Wanna be Sedated\" and \"Blitzkrieg Bop,\" among others, earned them an induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2002.

Johnny Ramone co-founded the Ramones in 1974 in New York along with singer Joey Ramone, bassist Dee Dee Ramone and drummer Tommy Ramone, who is the only surviving member of the original band. All four band members had different last names, but took the common name Ramone.

Joey Ramone, whose real name is Jeff Hyman, died in 2001 of lymphatic cancer. Dee Dee Ramone, whose real name is Douglas Colvin, died from a drug overdose in 2002.

Clad in leather jackets and long black mops of hair, the group started out in legendary New York clubs like CBGB and Max's Kansas City, where they blasted their rapid-fire songs.

Since its debut album in 1976, the band struggled for commercial success, but they left a formidable imprint on the rock genre. Though they never had a Top 40 song, the Ramones influenced scores of followers, including bands such as Green Day and Nirvana.

Even Bruce Springsteen was moved. After seeing the Ramones in Asbury Park, New Jersey, Springsteen wrote \"Hungry Heart\" for the band. His manager, however, swayed him to keep the song for himself and it became a hit single.

The band had encounters with other big names, including producer Phil Spector, who collaborated with the band in 1980 for the album \"End of the Century.\" During the session, the late bassist Dee Dee Ramone said Spector pulled a gun on the band.

\"The Ramones had it rough,\" said Vega, who's worked with the band for 30 years. \"The band almost had to be protected from people who were taking advantage of them. There was never any money made.\"

Johnny Ramone changed that by demanding more money for performances, but still kept a close watch on the band's budget; Vega recalled how he would insist that the band drive nonstop between Boston and New York for shows instead of spending the night in a hotel.

In addition to his financial conservatism, the guitarist was politically conservative -- the late Ronald Reagan was Ramone's favorite president, Vega said.

Fans have remained loyal to the Ramones, and the Ramones over the years have been loyal to their fans. In 1979, while shooting scenes for the film \"Rock 'n' Roll High School,\" the Ramones -- ignoring the director's order -- played a concert-length session for fans who had paid to be extras, Vega said.

\"The Ramones never ever lost their image, their aura of being the ultimate underdog, the voice of the angry young man,\" Vega said.

A tribute concert and cancer research fund-raiser was held Sunday in Los Angeles to celebrate the band's 30th anniversary. It featured performances from Los Angeles punk band X, the Red Hot Chili Peppers, Henry Rollins and others.

Along with his wife, Linda Cummings, Johnny Ramone was surrounded at his death by friends, including Pearl Jam rocker Eddie Vedder, singer Rob Zombie and others. Other friends who gathered at his Los Angeles home included Lisa Marie Presley, Pete Yorn, Vincent Gallo and Talia Shire.

He is survived by his wife and his mother, Estelle Cummings. He will be cremated during a private ceremony.

Rick James Death Due to Heart Attack, Drugs

2 hours, 58 minutes ago Add Entertainment - Reuters to My Yahoo!

LOS ANGELES (Reuters) - Rick James, the flamboyant funk musician who died suddenly in August, had nine drugs in his system including cocaine, methamphetamine, valium and vicodin, according to a coroner's report on Thursday.

James, 56, died in his sleep on Aug. 6 in his Los Angeles home of a heart attack, but the drugs in his system likely contributed to the organ's failure, the report said.

James, best known for his 1981 hit "Super Freak," suffered from diabetes, had a pacemaker and had been in fragile health after a stroke in 1998. He had been hooked on crack cocaine and once proclaimed himself an "icon of drug use and eroticism."

His family attributed his death to natural causes, but the Los Angeles County coroner took over the case because James had not seen a doctor in recent weeks. An autopsy failed to establish the cause and toxicology tests were ordered.

The coroner listed nine drugs, including prescription medications for anxiety, pain relief and heart failure, along with cocaine and methamphetamine that were found in James's body.

"None of the drugs or drug combinations were found to be at levels that were life-threatening in and of themselves," the report said. It gave the cause of death as a heart attack and ruled the death accidental.

James, who received a lifetime achievement award in June, had recently finished recording an album and was in talks with Hollywood studios for a movie about his life.
