katyscar11ett Posted March 29, 2006 Share Posted March 29, 2006 ...... the wonderful song I Will Survive? I don't think I have ever heard a worse version of any song ever. I love Gloria Gaynor and her version of I Will Survive was my favorite song in the 80's. I've been sick in bed for awhile with bad pneumonia, and watched a lot of TCM (the one good thing about being sick) and whenever I saw this ad, I didn't know whether or not I would survive. I hope whoever this is hasn't tortured other great old songs as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lzcutter Posted March 29, 2006 Share Posted March 29, 2006 Scarlett, Hope you are feeling better. You want to do bodily harm to a group called Cake. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
katyscar11ett Posted March 29, 2006 Author Share Posted March 29, 2006 Man, that was a fast answer! lol Thanks TZ. I am feeling better, so far, but was at the doctor yesterday and the pneumonia is back, so God only knows what will happen in the future - more antibiotics, for sure. Of course, there is always more TCM, as well. ;-) Cake, hmmmmm - sounds like they should be chewed up and spit out. And I'm the man to do it.

sweetbabykmd Posted March 29, 2006 Share Posted March 29, 2006 scarlett I'm with you, I think it is a poor rendition of the song and the guy singing (if you can call it that) has an irritating voice. I'll be glad when that's over, even though I have enjoyed the Divorce Remorse Tuesdays. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jarhfive Posted March 30, 2006 Share Posted March 30, 2006 scarlett, I am happy that you are (again) writing messages to this forum. I am even happier that you are feeling better. The "I Will Survive" song? I am "on the fence"--I like both versions. Strong opinion, eh? Rusty Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
katyscar11ett Posted March 30, 2006 Author Share Posted March 30, 2006 Rusty, thanks for the 'welcome back' - that is truly appreciated. :-) Actually, liking both versions is a good way to be - saves on ulcers lol. I don't like remakes as a rule, movies or songs, although music remakes are often very good and much easier to tolerate than movie remakes - but I truly dislike the version of I Will Survive they are playing on TCM this month. I don't think it helps that I love the original so much - I probably wouldn't like any remake - but this guy, I do find really obnoxious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
