Popular Post pacejunkie punk Posted April 9, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted April 9, 2020 I think for one of these he should release his recording of I Am A Rock with a video because it’s pretty appropriate right now. “Hiding in my room, safe within my womb/I touch no one and no one touches me” 3 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I Am A Rock sounds great with his voice I guess it depends on whether or not he’s strictly recording new covers or not 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

New covers are great I’m just so appreciative of him for all this music 😍 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cav9mm Posted April 9, 2020 Share Posted April 9, 2020 Man I’d so love to hear Billie do a cover of this song but I imagine he has never heard it . It’s an 80’s post punk /new wave band from Dublin Ireland called the Blades . it’s very much in the vein of covers he has done previously .. Tell me that you couldn’t hear Billie doing a great version of this .......that chorus is made for him ! 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
That Dude Posted April 11, 2020 Share Posted April 11, 2020 Okay you FOAMs, listen up! We need a leak before Monday. Ignore everything else in life, get this cover of 4 Non Blondes "What's Up?" That Billie Joe is doing. Now.

You're right this is very similar to the kind of songs he's covered and it slaps! 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ANTI Posted April 11, 2020 Share Posted April 11, 2020 Usually, I tend to overlook revival covers as gimmicky or just for the meme value, but I love how this came about so organically. You can genuinely tell Billie is doing this to give people something to look forward each week while keeping himself busy, so this time his ADHD is very much appreciated (even if he left FOAM orphan 😞). And I'm especially excited that he's choosing all these 80's power pop hits with quarantine themes, I would love a studio version of "Dancing With Myself" with a Billy Idol appearance just to see Billie geek out about it. I've seen others mention The Cure and I'm totally on board, I'm thinking a song like "In-Between Days" would be really interesting and fitting, or Depeche Mode's "Enjoy the Silence" with a gritty twist. Though if I could chose any song, I would love a cover of Bow Wow Wow's "I Want Candy" or Siouxsie's "Kiss Them For Me" with a sultry delivery like his cover of Southern Girls, but a girl can only dream... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1039Revolutions Posted April 12, 2020 Share Posted April 12, 2020 I’m guessing the next cover will be ‘Our Lips Are Sealed’ by The Go Go’s: 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beyza Posted April 12, 2020 Share Posted April 12, 2020 I was guessing he’ll cover this song cause know he mentioned before especially its lyrics very good as I remember but can’t listen right now without headphones In the morning, I can enjoy it hopefully lol 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrendanL Posted April 12, 2020 Share Posted April 12, 2020 Wow! This is my favorite of the lot, so far. I've got it on repeat, turning it up a little louder each time. I'd kill to see him play this backed by a band. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beerjeezus Posted April 12, 2020 Share Posted April 12, 2020 Haha he’s like “I don’t like religion (but happy easter)” This song is absolutely amazing and I love his vocals on it. Sound great, so far my favorite and I liked them all 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The way I understand it, it sounds like it’s pro but that’s meant to show how coaxing religion is, then the chorus is pretty straightforward, calling the religious sheep and jesus just a corpse on a cross. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
