Cheesy music alert!
There’s nearly always a song in my head and today’s was the Yes song ‘Owner of a Lonely Heart’ which I love love love! A fantastic cover of it was released not that long ago which really complimented the original (in my opinion anyway), and it got me thinking of all the other great cover versions of great old songs. It also made me realise that I must be getting old if I can remember the original/old versions from twenty years ago. I have adored all the recent cover versions of old songs! What a fantastic way to bring old songs alive again! I thought I would share some of them with you, so here’s the first instalment!
Old version: Yes – Owner of a Lonely Heart
New version: Max Graham v Yes – Owner of a Lonely Heart
Old version: Don Henley – Boys of Summer
