Default Covers of Chris Songs
I thought it might be an interesting thread starter if we were able to compile a list of artists who have covered songs written by Christine McVie.

I'll give one:

Stephanie Mills: "Oh Daddy"


I'd love to see more...

Rita Coolidge - Songbird


And, all the songs of hers on Tusk were covered by Camper Van Beethoven (since they covered the entire album)

Aha, maybe it was Natalie Cole that I'd heard singing Oh Daddy, not Stephanie Mills.

Chaka? For reals? If you do not lie to me, you may have made my year.

post it! post it!

I'd also love to hear the Annie McLoone version of "Spare Me", and Cyndi Lauper's "You Make Lovin' Fun," which has to be better than Jewel's version on that awful Rumors Tribute record.

For what it's worth, I also remember some band from about five or six years ago doing "Everywhere." Heard it in a cafe in NYC. It had a kind of "electronica" feel to it. Don't know who it was...anyone?

I thought the Rumours: Legacy tribute album was pretty good, EXCEPT for:

Elton John's "Don't Stop"

and the WORST offender:

Duncan Sheik's "Songbird".

Why they just didn't use Eva Cassidy's version just boggles my mind.

The Cranberries' version of "Go Your Own Way", Matchbox 20's "Never Going Back Again" and the Goo Goo Dolls' "I Don't Want To Know" are the album's highlights for me.

Duncan Sheik's "Songbird" was almost criminal.

I usually don't care much for covers by my favorite artists, but I thought "Dreams" by that Irish band was pretty good.

The Coors - yes that was pretty good.

Even my nephew liked that one (although I think that did have something to do with Andrea Coor seemingly wearing little more than a handkerchief in the video!)

The Corrs.

"Coors" is an American beer.
