Fantaverse Top 100 Songs of All Time (THREAD #9): #20-#11

NSpan The Velvet Underground, “Walk and Talk”
why would it blow your mind if they do a cover? i guess i dont understand it. The song wasn't bad, had an interesting charm to it.

The fact of it being a cover isn't what blows my mind. The fact that VELVET UNDERGROUND would cover STEELY DAN just sounds odd to me. It's like hearing that your favorite Nirvana song is actually a cover of Devo. Would that not be weird?

My favorite Nirvana song is a cover of Meat Puppets. Not quite the same but still....

To be fair my other fave Nirvana songs are theirs, (I think) Dive and Heart Shaped Box

But the Meat Puppets made perfect sense for Nirvana to cover. I'm talkin' out-of-left-field here.

***The Allman Brothers' Band, “Jessica”***
Yep, I still don't like country.

Why does everyone seem to think this is a country instumental? Maybe it's because the artists are Southern?

To be honest though, my list has contained many songs from the bands listed above, such as Smashing Pumpkins, U2, REM, The Smiths, Bowie, Pink Floyd, Joy Division, Led Zep and Dylan. They are just spread out, as well as being songs nobody likes...
