Title: Re: Remakes That Make You Say "WTF"? Post by: Jack on November 29, 2011, 01:17:37 PM Seeing that girl in the surf, and then Tiny Tim in that, well...unfortunate outfit of his; it's like having a bite of chocolate and then washing it down with a spoonful of lemon juice. My brain just isn't designed for this sort of thing :teddyr:

Title: Re: Remakes That Make You Say "WTF"? Post by: Mofo Rising on November 30, 2011, 03:10:18 AM Holy Hell! That was brilliant! Thank you for posting that.
"Do Ya Think I'm Sexy" is an awful, awful song, but now that I've seen that Tiny Tim video I can safely say it has been covered twice to what should be wide acclaim. The other cover I like is this (technically SFW, but I wouldn't watch it in view of the people who are paying for your health insurance): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z6zqYSezqwo Title: Re: Remakes That Make You Say "WTF"?

Post by: Allhallowsday on January 14, 2012, 11:32:38 PM [url]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-N_jlF-sRqk[/url] I think I saw this when it was new... and of course, laughed it off. I had even drawn a series of cartoons featuring TINY TIM in an imaginary series of films... (that was 25 years ago and though I have copies, the originals are lost). It's only now that I'm attuned enough to appreciate the artistry... and unique musicalness of this video. You love it. :thumbup: :drink:Title: Re: Remakes That Make You Say "WTF"?

Post by: Flick James on March 31, 2012, 01:21:57 PM This oddity doesn't qualify as a remake, but is definitely high in the "WTF" quotient. Butthole Surfers' "Sweat Loaf" contains the main riff of Black Sabbath's "Sweat Leaf" in it between all the rest of the wierdness. But hey, it's Butthole Surfers so it's going to be wierd. It's also from one of their most bizarre albums, Locust Abortion Technician. I wonder if everybody from Austin, TX is as wierd as they are.

Post by: 66Crush on April 26, 2012, 03:17:27 AM I realize Avril Lavigne is an easy target (especially if someone tarnishes the almighty Metallica, ooh, cardinal sin there). But I think she's talented and unlike Miley Cyrus, can actually sing. It's easy to lump these two in the same category, but Avril is nowhere near as manufactured as Miley.

Despite my posting Avril earlier, I do actually like her. Well, if she does her own songs, at least. When she does well known songs by other artists, I don't like em. Miley, I don't like at all. |
