Last year, I discovered this album with some of the best covers I've heard: War Child - Heroes. War Child is an international organization which aims at providing assistance to children in areas of conflict and post-conflict.
So, it's defintively a must-have in music richness and it's a very good cause!
Just look at the track list:
1. Beck (Bob Dylan - "Leopard-Skin Pill-Box Hat")
2. Scissor Sisters (Roxy Music - "Do The Strand")
3. Lily Allen feat. Mick Jones (The Clash - "Straight To Hell")
4. Duffy (Paul McCartney - "Live And Let Die")
5. Elbow (U2 - "Running To Stand Still")
6. TV On The Radio (David Bowie - "Heroes")
7. Hot Chip (Joy Division - "Transmission")
8. The Kooks (The Kinks - "Victoria")
9. Estelle (Stevie Wonder - "Superstition")
10. Rufus Wainwright (Brian Wilson -" Wonderful & Song For Children")
11. Peaches (Iggy Pop - "Search And Destroy")
12. The Hold Steady (Bruce Springsteen - "Atlantic City")
13. The Like (Elvis Costello - "You Belong To Me")
14. Yeah Yeah Yeahs (The Ramones - "Sheena Is A Punk Rocker")
15. Franz Ferdinand (Blondie - "Call Me)
I honestly like all of them, specially Sheena Is A Punk Rocker and Call Me, Karen O and Alex Kapranos are amazing :)
Lily Allen has made very good cover versions. In the deluxe version of Alright Still are two of them: The Kooks' Naïve and Keane's Everybody's changing.
In Juno's Soundtrack, there is a great cover of David Bowie's All The young Dudes!
Any suggestions?!
