Pretty sure Adam Lambert was a Stevie fan. There were rumors at one point last season about him singing EO17 but it never happened.

I would have loved to hear Allison Iraheta sing Stevie. She would have rocked it.

This Mary Powers chick? Can't stand her.

I remember her singing it, and I remember that Simon didn't seem to like her performance or the song.

Oh that is too funny. She loved Stevie and didn't know she was a woman.

Well, to be fair, it's hard not to mix her up with that Lindsey chick sometimes.

Also, wow, that was painful. Glad I didn't catch it on actual TV, I would've been hard pressed not to throw something at the set.

Do we take votes on that Mary girl trying to belt out Heart's "Alone" this season? Seems like all the "rocker" chicks (well, and Carrie Underwood) go after that one a lot.

I really enjoyed hearing this, thanks for sharing! It's kind of like an amalgam of the best Dreams performances throughout time.

Default Augustana covers dreams

check out the link to hear the cover
http://www.billboard.com/column/mash...05174752.story


It can be tough to match up to Stevie [Nicks], but we found a key that makes sense and can be versatile for a man's voice," Augustana singer Dan Layus says of tackling Fleetwood Mac's biggest hit ever, "Dreams," for this week's Mondays. Rather than trying to channel Nicks' distintive rasp, Layus worked with his own golden falsetto, and a three-voice harmony and wash of acoustic guitars to hew the classic song to the band's sound.

"Fleetwood Mac is an easy band to gravitate towards, obviously," Layus says of why Augustana chose to cover the vulnerable "Dreams", which Fleetwood Mac took to No. 1 on the Hot 100 in 1977. "I think they're all inclusive, for all types of music listeners."

Almost a decade into their own career, Illinois-formed, San Diego-based Augustana may have come into being decades after the London-formed Fleetwood Mac, but the American quintet has seen the heights of a Billboard chart, earning the No. 1 slot on Heatseekers with its debut album "All The Stars and Boulevards." "Dreams," of course, came from Fleetwood Mac's blockbuster 1977 album, "Rumours," which topped the Billboard 200.

"We definitely take a lot of tips from the classic 60s and 70s bands," Layus says of Augustana, which just sent its self-titled third album to No. 9 on the Rock Albums chart. "We find a lot of influence from them as far as the way to structure songs -- strong choruses with a lot of vocals surrounding it."


i am not a big fan of covers but i really like this one!
