Aibu regarding Fleetwood Mac

[Lifeasweknow]

This is terribly trivial, I am aware.
I was watching Peter Kay's Car Share and there was a part where Peter Kay's character said that the Fleetwood Mac version of Dreams was better than The Coors version. This is one of my all time favourite songs and personally think The Coors butchered it, however my sister said The Coors version is better.
AIBU to say Fleetwood Mac's original is far better than The Coors version.

The Corrs...although I agree with your opinion.

Your sister is mental.

Fleet wood Mac every time!

Ditto references to ‘Eva Cassidy’s Songbird’

It’s Christine McVie’s Songbird and her version is way superior

Stevie Nicks' vocals are sublime

@Bringmewineandcake my apologies😂. I am far more aquanted with the drink than the band

I'm glad people agree! I also feel the same about Tracy Chapmans version of Baby Can I Hold You over Boyzones. This makes it seem like I only have a problem with covers from Irish bands which isn't the case 😂

@LaureBerthaud amazing

The Corrs breathless brand of Celtic-lite pop butchered everything. Their version of ‘Little Wing’ is just horror.

Fleetwood Mac wipe the floor with The Coors. Your sister is mad.

The Corrs were unmitigated pap. Hasn't Jim Corr now become a Twitter, er, attention-seeker?

Fleetwood Mac always

Fleetwood mac's dreams is one of my favourite songs so I agree with you.

@Plurabellicose I just watched their version on YouTube and hated it. The comments were full if praise!

Also tears for fears mad world over that gary jules version.

Would love to hear The Coors massacre try to sing 'Green Manalishi (with a two pronged crown)'
That would be a real competition.

There can be no comparison. Fleetwood MAC are one of the worlds biggest, best loved bands and the Corrs are a 90s short lived phenomenon that relied on pretty faces and familial relationship as their marketing point. If Chris Evans hadn’t wanked himself into a froth over the Corrs at every opportunity, I doubt they’d have made any more of an impression than a squeaky fart in a hurricane.

I like both versions a lot. I think I’d probably say....the Corrs are better.

I can’t believe anyone attempted to cover the Tracy Chapman, I don’t think I could bear to listen to it.

Am sure your sister is lovely but the only good thing about this song is the laugh it just gave me - Christ it’s awful. Hitherto I was an innocent unaware that their Irish pixie pap had so much belief it thought that cover could work.

I’m not a fan of cover versions of any rock song. Original is best. Even If it was a good cover (and that one is not) I could never get the original out of my head.

I agree with you - in fact all 4 of us here agree with you. I don't even have to ask as we all rate FM and do not rate the Corrs for anything.

DD goes to FM gigs when they're on near us; we find it hilarious that she goes off to gigs of bands dh and I grew up with. Fairport are another favourite of hers.

Oh @LilacTree1 I guess we all have different tastes.
some tastes better than others 🙈

Of course Fleetwood Mac!

I'm so happy FM get the majority vote here.

Your sister has clearly been drinking - lockdown will do that to you!

Defo Fleetwood Mac. Most pub bands would do that better than the Coors.
