covers

thefunkyfresh by thefunkyfresh · Jul 7, 2003 · 322 views · · · Journal

hey guys, I'm just trying to get some suggestions for covers for my band to do. We're willing to do new or old songs, as long as they aren't gay! Also, just for an update, we are looking to hit the recording studio again because we have 8 more songs. We're targeting a full length cd release for late August/September!

To contribute to the discussion, please log in.

My boyfriend has always said that he wanted to hear a punked-out version of the "Fraggle Rock" themesong. Think about how cool that would be! Everyone our age loved that show. :) Down to Fraggle Rock!

this is a great suggestion, but not better than mine that I'm about to suggest. Ahem, how about covering a "bobby mcferrin" song?
