BEE GEES COVERS, A to Z!
Posted on August 27th, 2010 by ekkoIt’s time for one of those A to Z posts that you all used to enjoy so much. I don’t do them as much anymore because I don’t get as much love for them, but sometimes, the idea is too good to pass up. Like naming a zip file: BGSA2Z. So here you go, a tribute to the hairy chested blonde disco kings.
A is to give you fair warning, up front that All these songs can be found in a zipfile, under Z, below.
B is for How Deep Is Your Love-The Bird and the Bee. This band’s 2010 tribute to Hall and Oates was nothing short of revelatory. I love these guys.
C is for Cracker’s take on Stayin’ Alive.
D is for You Should Be Dancing-Deep Blue Sun.
E is for Staying Alive-Eldissa. Oooh! A salsa!
F is for Feist’s cover of “Inside and Out.” Kind of a cute video . . .
G is for gibberish! Me no speaky the language, but me can appreciate the cover . . . Icht Machte Nen Scherz-Erdmo Bel (I Started a Joke)
H is for heavy metal! Tragedy, a metal Bee Gees cover band, is worth discovering here, for the kick factor. Very fun. I’m offering their take on Night Fever.
I is for I Started a Joke-The Lucksmiths. A forlorn, harmonica-and-guitar version.
J is for Jive Talking-The Breakfast. A bootleg cover. Pretty good, but not great. Still, it gives me my “J,” so I’m grateful.
K is for kid of Bob Dylan. I Started a Joke-The Wallflowers
L is for Love Potion #9 Medley, which includes a ton of tunes: Love Potion #9 (Clovers), Ohio (CSNY), Stayin’ Alive (Bee Gees), Who Will Save Your Soul (Jewel), You Oughta Know (alanis Morissette), Barbie (Aqua), Love Shack (B52s), all by the great live band Moxy Fruvous.
M is for Mash Up! P is for Pink Floyd! Shut Up, Let’s Hook Up (Pink Floyd vs. The Bee Gees, with Jason Downs on vocals).
N is for Matt Nathanson–a great live performer. Here’s a cool medley: Starfish and Coffee/Eminem/Starfish and Coffee/Stayin’ Alive/Starfish and Coffee.
O is for You Should Be Dancing-Omega Moos. A 7-minute live jam session. Yeah, it is a little big much.
P is for pumpkins! To Love Somebody-Smashing Pumpkins. God, I love Billy Corgan’s voice.
R is for To Love Somebody-Ray Lamontagne.
S if for Stayin’ Alive-String Cheese Incident.
T is for Take Ur Mama Out to the Disco-Scissor Sisters (a Bee Gees remix!).
W is for Switching Alive-Will Smith and the Bee Gees. I think the Gibbs will live forever in mash ups.
Y is for You Should Be Dancing-Juggling Suns

I have a version of Buddy Miller doing “To Love Somebody” during the Three Girls and their Buddy (girls are Emmylou Harris, Patty Griffin and Shawn Colvin — all sing backup) that is just unbelievable. Can send to you if you’d like.

Yes, yes, yes! It has been boring up until the big fight between Sophia and Saffia where Saf walked out and Sophie got evicted the next day.
