Both American Idol and cover both punks makes us think that one day will not be original songs. Worse, we may forget who played the original song. I had to write this for the area during the summer, when, poisoned with the Festival de Viña, I review the dusty box of covers, and met with old songs made new. The people were good. Sometimes better. And that one came to Vina.
Unfortunately, for reasons darker and hairier than the pit of Pele, this article was never published. But here I start to show light. For parties, it was quite long.
Sir Tom Jones: borrow, like a gentleman
For Tim Burton you choose as the final character in one of his movies should be a dough monkey, have scissors in their hands or latex suit marked caramels. But if this is a happy ending to a movie where everyone dies, everyone from the U.S. president to the unflappable Pierce Brosnan, must be Welsh (yes, Wales ), having a hoarse voice and make a little gil.
In Mars Attacks! , the spoof Burtoniano sc fi i did see on screen as a delusional Jack Nicholson, Michael 
J. Fox a loser, as Pierce Brosnan and Sarah Jessica Parker chanta as a hot (well, it was the only director who did), Tom Jones breaks. Not only survives until the end of the film, but also closes singing "It's Not Unusual ", his song-hymn . Total Winner.
topic that is sure to close his performance played on the fifth this summer (did he? "He repeated? Did not see the festival), but q ue is not the only one we know around here. "Sex bomb " and " Burning down the house " are another s that ordinary Chileans and even identifies has performed in one or another party. But watch out, the second is a cover.
Yes, because this old man who managed to get sick with tuberculosis when he was a sub 10 made his career based on original themes, until in 1999 he came to launch a songs gives full versions, or covers. Named the album "Reload " (a zero for originality, Metallica had released 2 years earlier one with the same name) and was its resurrection in the world charts. In the meantime, had been engaged to sing in casinos in Las Vegas. As in Mars Attacks.
" Sex Bomb", written by Mousse T , turcogermano DJ and producer, is the single best-known album, but not the only good. "Burning down the house," the Talking Heads , cover with the Cardigans - " She drives me crazy " (for those who lack orthodontic Fine Young Cannibals ) and partying " Little green bag" (led by Barenaked Ladies ) the burst.
" Mama Told Me Not to Come " (from Randy Newman, cover with Stereophonics ) and " Never Tear Us Apart " (of INXS , vocalized by the exquisite Natalie Imbruglia) are only ok.
But "Lust for life " with Pretenders not give the likes of Iggy Pop and " Are you gonna go my way " (with Robbie Williams ) is too British accent to an average human. Yuck on both.
special case is "Sometimes we cry " (next to the very Van Morrison), although the voice of Sir Tom opaque to mate, is the perfect song to close the telethon. Don Francis interlocutions included. Snif.
Jones received a knighthood from the hands of the antediluvian Queen Elizabeth II of England hac and almost a year. Several months before his aides tried unsuccessfully image to take that air is x bomb outdated and, of course, could not. Elvis friend , all Beatles and also Sir Mick Jagger , Jones has s also been kidnapped by Mr. Burns on the Simpsons and the angel custom Carlton's guardian cousin nerd Will Smith in Fresh Prince.
A very kind gentleman that is, something has to freak. And enough to get him to repeat Viña ad nauseam: "It's not unusual to be ...."
