Posted February 8, 200916 yr In the late 90's and early 00's covering a Bee Gees number was a guaranteed hit! Until reality contestants One True Voice killed the revival off... 1995 N-Trance Stayin Alive 2 1996 Take That How Deep Is Your Love 1 1996 Boyzone Words 1 1997 Pras Michel Feat. Ol' Dirty bast*rd And Mya Ghetto Supastar (That Is What You Are) (Chorus featured reworked lyrics from Islands In The Stream) 2 1998 Céline Dion Immortality 5 1998 911 More Than A Woman 2 1998 Steps Tragedy 1 2001 Steps Chain Reaction 2 2001 Destiny's Child Emotion 3 2002 One True Voice Sacred Trust 2 Now the unofficial comic relief single (Rob Brydon) is a cover of Islands In The Stream, which the Bee Gee's originally wrote for country crooners Kenny Rogers and Dolly Parton. It also formed the basis of the chorus of ex-Fugees members Pras Michel's top2 smash Ghetto Supastar. Which are your best and worst choices from the cover craze?

February 8, 200916 yr In the late 90's and early 00's covering a Bee Gees number was a guaranteed hit! Until reality contestants One True Voice killed the revival off... Which are your best and worst choices from the cover craze? I think Take That did a fair cover of HDIYL (not great but certainly not bad). I did however love the video ... I know it was weird ... but I thought the video was better than the song. Worst would probably be Boyzone's Words. I do like Ronan Keating as a person ... but I really don't understand how he got to be a professional singer with that truly irritating voice. Steps doing Tragedy was shi te ... but I didn't really like that song even sung by the Bee Gees. Norma Edited February 8, 200916 yr by Norma_Snockers
February 8, 200916 yr Destiny's Child did the best cover of that lot. Even though I've heard the original I never really connected the two. :mellow: I like the Céline Dion song too. ^_^ Boyzone is the worst from that list. :puke2: Then I either don't mind or haven't heard the rest.
February 9, 200916 yr i think Steps done the best job as in making the song their own at the time but i also like take that's version of how deep is your love although in general i think it's an average songs,,,words by boyzone was terrible
