Directory of Lost Causes

Ah well, nice to know that this blog is occasionally educational. It also makes me feel my age slightly, as it's another example of me knowing 'the original'. I haven't always. I mean, there are still some songs I associate more with the people who did the cover version than with the original. Can't think of a good example now, though.

Oh... one example of the opposite, not from the world of music, but of films. The Wickerman to me, is definitely the original, set on a Scottish isle, and not the remake.

An example of me not knowing/preferring the original, also in the film world, is Invasion of the Bodysnatchers, which, to me, is the seventies version, with Donald Sutherland, and not the original fifties version. I believe there's also a nineties version, but I haven't seen it. It's bound to be rubbish.
