I normally like Counting Crows. However, if a band is going to cover a song like Big Yellow Taxi, DON'T CHANGE THE FUCKING WORDS SO THAT IT NO LONGER RHYMES AT THE END!!!! Christ, pretend you are gay or something and leave the gender intact - or at least be creative and come up with something better than "took my old lady away!"
Fuck!
And don't get me started on their rhythm!
My irritation at the song isn't improved by the fact that my fiancee loves their version.
P.S. I worship Joni Mitchell
: Guns and Roses
: "Knockin' On Heavens Doa-oh-oarrrrrr"
: Just hideous....
That one is the worst! I cringe just thinking about it.
