Hsamid Posted July 30 Share Posted July 30 Are there any songs that have never been covered well on the voice in your opinion? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gustavo527 Posted July 30 Share Posted July 30 I'm sure there is at least a song that has been covered several times and all of these attempts have been unsuccesful. But i can't remember it at the moment for some reason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hsamid Posted July 30 Author Share Posted July 30 Just now, nytsch said: Cuz I Love You Boo this man! For real though, I understand if someone thinks the renditions weren't great, but weren't even done well? That's pretty harsh, lol. Anyways, I feel like a bunch of songs listed will be one and dones. Case in point, mystery of love by sufjan stevens.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nytsch Posted July 30 Share Posted July 30 Leave the Door Open (Jonathan’s was okay, but it’s just not really a singing competition type song imo) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gustavo527 Posted July 30 Share Posted July 30 (edited) If we are going down the route of picking songs that weren't covered terribly bad but all the covers have been meh, then "Alone" belongs to this thread. Not even a single cover ever remotely close to the original Edited July 30 by Gustavo527 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I feel like then I can’t really think of songs that have been done like more than twice and all the versions were bad lol? That’s What I Like comes to mind but then there was Shadale… 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AngelaKD Posted July 30 Share Posted July 30 Clarity by Zedd f/Foxes It was covered by some of the Voice’s best contestants (Michelle Chamuel, Jackie Lee) but it came off lackluster and IMO their worst performance. Also covered by Madilyn Paige and got her eliminated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kenneth96 Posted July 30 Share Posted July 30 That's What I Like. No experience needed. This is a perfect choice to start going downfall or bus someone, since it's not a singing competition type of song. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

allistr Posted July 30 Share Posted July 30 Invincible by Kelly Clarkson. Montaged once, got a contestant eliminated and another contestant had a pitchy performance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tamara also wasn’t bad even if I didn’t like her cover as much. I thought Morgan did… just about as well as she could do. Some strong parts but overall I’m not sure it came together. It’s so easy to get messy in that song and the verses are deceptively hard. But then again we come back to Brooke Simpson’s version so I do think it’s possible to nail it? You just have to be crazy good to get both the personality and technical aspects. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My standards may not be as high but what I liked about Morgan’s version is that she captured the essence of the song even if there were messy parts. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rodney Posted July 31 Share Posted July 31 Given that both Kimberly Nichole and Troy Ramey ended up getting eliminated because of it, Tom Petty's "Free Fallin'" should be considered. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kiara Brown from S17 had a pretty good version of that song. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
