It just sounds like something No doubt did as a stop gap record.
I would say it's as good, I love Gwens voice though

The problem with it is that it is exactly the same as the original. They didn't arrange it or try anything new so it just ended up sounding like a cash in on somebody else's work. It might aswell have been covered by Robson & Jerome for all it added to the song's legacy.

Britney's "I love Rock & Roll" might suck all manner of ass, but the least you can say is it sounded like a different record to the original.

I get your point but tbh I'd prefer to listen to a good copy than a horrendous original version!

And aren't they all cashing in on someone elses work whether they change it around a bit or not?

I wouldn't exactly say this was better than the original but I happened to randomly fall across it whilst finding the proper Linkin Park version, it sounds like it shouldn't work but it really does (no vocals, I thought there would be which would have been funny )

Youtube video


Pretty calming if you like that kind of thing

30STM's cover of Stronger pisses all over the original.
