Comments by "Sam Brockmann" (@SamBrockmann) on "Top 10 Cover Songs That Are More Popular Than The Original" video.

  1. Just about every cover of any Bob Dylan song is better than Bob's original version. We can pretend that Bob Dyland was a musical genius, but the reality is that Bob's material always tends to lack something. Every cover of his material adds something. Jimi Hendrix's version of "All Along the Watchtower". Mr. and Mrs. Cash's cover of "It Ain't Me, Babe". My Chemical Romance, “Desolation Row”. The White Stripes, “One More Cup of Coffee”. Guns N’ Roses, “Knockin’ On Heaven’s Door”. The Byrds, “Mr. Tambourine Man”. The list goes on and on. Bob Dylan's nasally, horrid vocal tone over "minimalistic folk rock" is never a good mix (and never has been). He is only famous, because drugged out hippies couldn't tell the difference. The reality is, Bob is a good lyricist, a sh*t singer, and a sh*t musician. But lots of other folks recognized (due to those drugged out hippies' legacies) Bob's skill at lyric writing, and they covered his songs.

  2. If you took a shot every time this video brought up "feminism", you'd be drunk, and you'd sound just as dumb as the narrator does every time she brings it up.
