there isnt a thread on this apparantly. i was doing a bit of browsing there and came across one totally legal website. the reason it is, is due to the fact that the original artists arent singing. downloaded with or without you for the laugh and merciful jesus. whatever you say about Bono, his sound isnt exactly easily replicated. heard a mexican group do vertigo as well once. not in trad mexicano music or anythiong but it was still funny!

views? good ones? bad ones? ones you didnt realise were covers?

How can we give opinions if we don't know the site?

ah i just thought ye might have two cents on cover versions in general

http://www.ez-tracks.com/showArtists-OrigArtist-U2.html

thats the site with u2 listings for instance. none of them are sung by bono. i dont know how i found mp3 of with or without you, but its there. i have 125 free downloads which be great if they were by original artists

keanes cover version of with or without you is a strange one too i must say. okay at low range but terrible at higher range
