Cover Songs

[fretbuzz11]

Hey there! Been a fan for years and just recently joined the forum. I'm sure this subject has been done before but thought I'd give it a shot. TLE has done some great covers in the past but...

What song would you like to see TLE cover?

Heres an obscure number from The Romantics that I bet they could make their own:

[Kacky]

I'd still love to hear a TLE version of the Element Song. Mel, REMEMBER? :p

[Grumma]

What about the Logical Song?

[tanguyen]

Round the twist theme song.

[All_torn_down16]

Round the twist theme song.

That would be gold haha! :D

[Deadcat Kaye]

Stronger - Kanye West. :p

[mel_bound]

I'd still love to hear a TLE version of the Element Song. Mel, REMEMBER? :p

HELLA YEAHRRR
So atleast I don't feel alone as a nerrrd, haha.

[WHITE FALCON]

i'd love to hear them do another beatles song :)

you know what would be awesome, "the trooper" tle stye. althought chris cant sing like bruce dickenson :(

[_jimmy_]

The Beatles eh?

now there's an idea worth hearing...hows about Yesterday~ :p

*sings to self*

yesterday~ all my troubles seem so far away~

Greendays cover of working class hero was kinda bleh

[Kacky]

HELLA YEAHRRR
So atleast I don't feel alone as a nerrrd, haha.

GO US NERDS!

[Colezy]

Stronger - Kanye West. :p
Hahaha. Good times :p

[drifta_21]

I call My Generation-The Who. The bass solo would be awesome with Scott doing it.

[Grumma]

i'd love to hear them do another beatles song :)

you know what would be awesome, "the trooper" tle stye. althought chris cant sing like bruce dickenson :(

apparently they used to cover a couple of Maiden songs in their early days

[Amur]

I know it sounds weird and late but why wouldn't they make a decent cover of 20 flight rock? as Runaway boys they did it really awesome, and Chris' vocals suits well.

[Grumma]

so the Runaway Boy's didn't do a decent job?

[Sarah]

I think she means a decently recorded up to date version needs to be done. I'd like to hear that too!

[Kev]

Greendays cover of working class hero was kinda bleh

Ozzy Osbourne's was better.


As for a Beatles song, SGT Peppers would be pretty cool.


Oh and speaking of Ozzy, Paranoid would be an interesting cover. Even NIB

[WHITE FALCON]

apparently they used to cover a couple of Maiden songs in their early days

fuck yeah that would be soo cool!
can you just imagine chris singing number of the beast :)
the trooper would suit him better.
or maybe even run to the hills

[Amur]

I think she means a decently recorded up to date version needs to be done. I'd like to hear that too!
yeah that's what I meant.

[Grumma]

fuck yeah that would be soo cool!

I could imagine him trying to sing Number Of The Beast.
Run To The Hills was one of the songs they apparently played (along with Rime Of The Ancient Mariner and Phantom Of The Opera)

[WHITE FALCON]

where did you hear this?

[Jonnno]

I could imagine him trying to sing Number Of The Beast.
Run To The Hills was one of the songs they apparently played (along with Rime Of The Ancient Mariner and Phantom Of The Opera)

baha, cannot imagine him singing that!

[Fritz]

one band i hate is iron maiden... like seriously... singing about castles and dragons n shit... come on!

Just as bad as adults that read harry potter books. There was an awesome call about it on american dad the other night I think it was.... 'oh its like those childrens books that adults read to try make up for their lack of excitement in their lifes' or something like that..... anyway. Nah, never been into maiden. Please never do a maiden song TLE..

[Amur]

I'd agree with Mick :)

[mel_bound]

Heaps of bands (especially metal - though I know nothing about it) sing about 'dragons and shit'
And while I don't listen to them, TLE already did cover songs by Maiden (forgot which ones) but Chris said so in an interview.
Haha.

[Deadcat Kaye]

I reckon it'ld be awesome if they did a Rammstein cover :p
Ich Will or somethin
hahaha
*imagines*

[WHITE FALCON]

ewww maiden shit all over rammstein 100 times.
imagine chris singing a song about a little kid who was deprived of his mothers nipples :S

[Grumma]

lol imagine Chris trying to sing Du Hast . . .

DU!!! *ground shakes from Rammstein's singers low voice*
DU HAST!

They already have.

And there isn't a Maiden song that I've heard that mentions castles or dragons.
90% of their lyrics are historically based

[Deadcat Kaye]

DU!!! *ground shakes from Rammstein's singers low voice*
DU HAST!


hahahahahaha
lol out loud. :p

[Grumma]

Chris has the disadvantage of not being anywhere near as manly (in stature and body bulk) has Lindeman. The guy is huge!

[Caity]

Grumma wtf? :p You're supposed to be offline :p

[thelivingvines]

I thought the riff in Rats sounded distinctly iron maiden-ish. Fuck it, I'd go as far as to say that the solo in til the end sounds like maiden meets vai. Like it or not Mick, Iron Maiden influence them. Besides- what about your rule: if Chris likes it/ has it: so do you.

[WHITE FALCON]

chris said it was early iron maiden influenced didnt he?
or one of them
hahaha giles good call as well ;)

[Kev]

A Pink Floyd cover would be nice.

[Grumma]

POS solo screams Maiden.
Just thought I'd throw that in there

[Fritz]

sorry I hurt you with that post the other day giles. you still seem pretty pissed...

[The Dying Start]

They should put down a recorded version of Out My Back Door, or even Green River.

[Kacky]

They should put down a recorded version of Out My Back Door

YES PLEASE! :D

[The Dying Start]

Dung ducka dung, dung ducka dung, dung ducka dung, doot doot doo looking out my backdoor.

[Anfony]

I'd really enjoy a cover of Get back or any beatles song for that matter. I think anything TLE covered would sound great:)
Cheers.

[Caity]

Yeah, Beatles covers would rock.

[Sarah]

I'd really enjoy a cover of Get back or any beatles song for that matter. I think anything TLE covered would sound great:)
Cheers.

are you Anfony with an F, like from myspace...i don't know where/when i saw the name, but i just stuck in my head probably cos i thought it was really annoying!

And, whilst i'll admit to enjoyed their previous versions of looking out my backdoor, I must say that i'd be very happy if they DON'T cover creedence again! haha. Personally I'd love some more cool eighties pop/rock covers. Adam and the Ants, Billy Idol, Robert Palmer, Cheap Trick, Split Enz, even more Barnesy/Chisel...oh, or more Elvis Costello! Or some more heavier stuff, yes Grumma, like some Maiden, or glam rock even (it's not such a huge step to go from tight white jeans to spandex). Just no more Creedence :p

[Anfony]

Haha yes Sarah I am Anfony with an F from myspace :)

Another song I thought would make an awesome TLE cover is Rush by big audio dynamite.

[The Dying Start]

i'd be very happy if they DON'T cover creedence again!
BOOOO! HISSSSSSS!

Another song I thought would make an awesome TLE cover is Rush by big audio dynamite.

Oh, hells yes!

[Grumma]

Yeah, Beatles covers would rock.

Yellow Submarine

[Craigels]

I'd like to hear them do something really heavy like slipknot or something just to see if they'll make it sound alright and to see how well Chris screams.

[Colezy]

I reckon he'd sound girly if he screamed to hard :p

[Grumma]

yeah same

Chris's voice and anything heavy wouldn't work

[Craigels]

^

hahaha yeah. It's pretty hard to do and you can screw your voice up if you do it wrong which would be VERY bad for him.

[Grumma]

Not even that.
His voice is too la la happy for stuff like Metallica

[Sean11]

The Living End..... Influence compilation...

How cool would that be?

1, Stray Cat Strut
2, London Calling
3, Blitkrieg Bop
4, Anarchy in the U.K


etc.................... :D IN MY DREAMS

[Grumma]

The Rime! Of The Ancient! Mariner!

[_jimmy_]

I can imagine them doing Johnny B Goode for some reason...

[Grumma]

The Stray Cats did it

[Jonnno]

Yeah, I can't imagine TLE doing a chuck berry cover at all for some reason. They're more suited to 80's rock n roll revival tunes I think.

How bout a radiohead cover o_O

[Grumma]

or Motorhead.

It's the ace of spades! the ace of spades!

Actually, Scott would probably be better off singing that than Chris

[Jonnno]

For sure, for sure. A motorhead cover would be badass, dont see them doing it though.

[Grumma]

Me either.

Their image is too "clean" to cover anything 80s :p

[The Dying Start]

Like Girls On Film, and Tainted Love or any 80's songs like that?

[Grumma]

Doesn't mean they did a good job

[Matt]

Doesn't mean they did a good job

If you don't think that tainted love is a fucken epic cover then you should be immediately and permanently banned from this forum.

srsly.

[Grumma]

It's ok but anyone can take a pop song, double the speed and play it on guitar

[Jonnno]

I havent heard the girls on film cover. Someone sendy pl0x.

[mattheal]

pretty sure its on a single

[The Dying Start]

Did it end up on a single? I can't remember. I know it was originally released on a Duran Duran tribute album.

[Colezy]

Yup, it's only one the tribute album.

Girls Talk, however, was on a single.

[The Dying Start]

It sure was. That's a great cover too. Another great 1980's cover!!!

[Sarah]

Yep, all great covers, especially Girls on Film - it just sounds, well, can't think of a word, but good!

[Jonnno]

Fantastic, where do I get one?

[The Dying Start]

A girl? Sorry buddy. Not gonna happen... :p

[billygal]

They also did a pretty kool version of checkered love and Ant music (sorry if mentioned previously lazy and cant be bothered re-reading)

[Jonnno]

A girl? Sorry buddy. Not gonna happen... :p

touche glenn, touche

[Grumma]

Andre might be interested though

[Sarah]

They also did a pretty kool version of checkered love and Ant music (sorry if mentioned previously lazy and cant be bothered re-reading)

so unbelievably jealous.

they should totally do Ant Music for a b-side...or Prince Charming, or any Adam Ant songs :)
