My favorite tune from them...

Elenor Rigby, and Yesterday and my favorite Beatles songs.
This whole album is great, but this is one of my long time chill out songs.

I hope you guys like it as much as I do. They are going to be going through Oregon soon, btw.
I love the band Godhead, have you heard their cover of Eleanor Rigby? I enjoy it.
I tried, my man. lol
I'm not a huge fan.. :/ I find it's missing a lot of the elements that I really loved in the original song.
A version I like almost as much as the original is this;

I know he's not the most sophisticated singer, he fluctuates with his tone, lol annnnnd this is a demo, but wow, it just feels really emotional.
Regardless, thanks for sharing my man!
Thanks for sharing as well. I can appreciate that version as well; I just don't get the emotion from it that I get from the other, lol. I wonder if that says anything about our personalities?
I would say it says more about our musical preferences than personalities.
BUT, I would actually love to do a comparison. It would be totally qualitative, but there might be some neat findings! I might actually PM you about this, when I get some time, and you're free.... if you're interested!
It is interesting to hear different interpretations of the same song. Sometimes, a song will mean nothing to me from one artist, but when done by another it really hits me (i.e. I can't stand Dillon doing anything, but when done by other artists, I can really dig his stuff). I think Eleanor Rigby (Beatles version) is so powerful, in part, to being the only tune they sung (afaik) with nothing but a string quartet (technically a double string quartet) as backup; no guitars, no percussion. It's got a austere classical quality that just doesn't come through when you rock it out. Here's two covers of classics I think are outstanding -
APC made a march in minor out of this classic -.
I love this version, the chords they utilize are incredible .-
