in theory i would also subscribe to editors who tend to add interesting releases, but in practice i haven't done so yet :)

i tend to subscribe to uh.. you guys.. liek a lame "buddy" list.. isthat lame? yes

yeah, I have both - ones I don't trust and ones I do - on my list. If "Subscribed" actually showed subscribed editors' edits, I'd prob just subscribe to those I don't trust.
Hmmm... Okay, Weird Al's "I Love Rocky Road" is a parody of "I Love Rock 'n' Roll". It came out not long after Joan Jett's version spent 13 weeks at #1. He was obviously parodying her version. But the original was done by The Arrows in the early 70s. So is it a parody of Joan Jett or The Arrows?
2008-04-12 10349, 2008
BrianFreud
If her version was different enough to be a new work (if we had works yet), I'd say a parody of her work, with her work a cover of the arrow's work.

Hmmm... Never heard The Arrows version.

Doubt many people have. They may have done the original, but she made it the legend that it is. ;-)

Think I'll go with Jett's version ("artist intent").
Damn idiots released it as a B-side. No wonder noone knows who they are with stupid decisions like that. :-P

Bah, decisions, decisions...

yllona idly wonders if ruaok could visit the a/V department at SLO-Poly to check for "lost" tapes of Wierd Al
2008-04-12 10310, 2008
yllona seems to remember that weird al got his start at the SLO/Poly radio station
2008-04-12 10308, 2008
yllona
in the dread "archi-torture" program
2008-04-12 10319, 2008

I thought Wierd Al was from Canada... wouldn't he have started up there?
2008-04-12 10356, 2008
yllona
can't remember where he's from, but he definitely went to college at SLO/poly
2008-04-12 10301, 2008

During Yankovic's sophomore year as an architecture student at Cal Poly San Luis Obispo, he became a disc jockey at the university's radio station, KCPR. Yankovic said he had been nicknamed "Weird Al" by fellow students and "took it on professionally" as his persona for the station.

He recorded My Bologna in the restroom across the hall from the station

yeah, we're about the same age, and i was a visiting student there, looking at schools.

Bah, I'll use The Arrows since it's technically correct.

how would you even know it was a residents cover? might actually be one of the Residents in real life...youneverknow
2008-04-12 10325, 2008
BrianFreud
kind of doubt it...
2008-04-12 10313, 2008
drsaunde
well if you know who was in the residents, enter those members in the db
2008-04-12 10319, 2008
drsaunde
we'd have a scoop
2008-04-12 10336, 2008
BrianFreud
not a clue, but considering they were most likely in high school in the 60's in Lousianna, Jeff Buckley was probably a bit young to have been one of them
2008-04-12 10354, 2008
drsaunde
yah..but they could have had rotating members in as well
2008-04-12 10323, 2008
drsaunde
buckley of course would be amongst the very least likely
2008-04-12 10335, 2008
BrianFreud suggests Hendix and Cobain as other Residents :P

CatCat would use jett's version of rock n roll personally :s
actually found something on this - looks like it was some 100 tape release. (caution, the site he links to is NSFW, and I don't see it there anyhow) http://robocybersquaw.livejournal.com/97034.html

*sigh* Really thinking artist intent should be deciding factor in parody/cover. Who's version the artist was attempting to parody/cover should take precedent over "the original artist".
2008-04-12 10334, 2008
HairMetalAddict
Becomes a big factor on Weird Al's "Even Worse" album. 4 parodies are of songs that were popular at the time of release but each was itself a cover song.
2008-04-12 10310, 2008

"I Think I'm a Clone Now" = Tiffany's "I Think We're Alone Now", not the Tommy James 60s version.
2008-04-12 10338, 2008

Alimony is Billy Idol's Mony, Mony, not the 60s Tommy James version.
