k4rma Posted November 6, 2009 Report Share Posted November 6, 2009 I got a message from Tooth and Nail records about Joy Electric covering Paramore's - "Decode". It's on their myspace. Personally, I don't like it. What's your opinion? http://www.myspace.com/joyelectric Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harry Posted November 6, 2009 Report Share Posted November 6, 2009 Good lord, that might have passed as slightly okay if I were totally wasted, but it was not to be, I was sober when I heard it:( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ross Posted November 15, 2009 Report Share Posted November 15, 2009 I'm not being stubborn and I am being honest. I don't like Decode, yes, but the covers I like are the ones which take the original song and give their own interpretation of it, which they've done. The song itself isn't great so I agree with you all there, I just don't like the original any more than this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SalsaC Posted November 15, 2009 Report Share Posted November 15, 2009 The original's one of my favorites from Paramore and it's funny how royally Joy Electric messed it up. There was absolutely no "real" interpretation, the whole song was based on a gimmick "let's switch all instruments to electronic ones", and even that was done a bit amateurishly. Bands can sometimes get away with covering a song without changing anything but, for my ears, this didn't work at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
