Dina asked why a person might scream out for a cheesy pop cover...
Well, speaking only for myself, I have to say that I enjoy "Jet." A lot.
So sue me <g>.
On the topic of covers, generally, I enjoy the occasional incongruous
cover that an artist throws into the set, even the cheese. Especially
when the artist can make the cover song sound uniquely "theirs." I guess
I like the novelty of it. A song ends and I expect to hear another
fabulous original. But no, instead I get "Jet." Fabulous! Hilarious!
I'm thinking of the first time I heard The Derailers' cover of Prince's
"Raspberry Beret" or The V-Roys' cover of IOU by The Replacements. I
guess one could make the argument that the above songs are not really
cheese, but I like 'em all.
Still standing by my plan to scream for "Jet,"
Jennifer
