Parley Posted March 15, 2006 Posted March 15, 2006 >.> She did'nt 'remake' the song... it's called a 'cover' duh.Utada is awsome!That's exactly what a cover is--a remake. Duh.
rizuchan Posted March 16, 2006 Posted March 16, 2006 I actually have had the song on my iPod for quite some time. I love Utada, and finding out she did a cover of Boulevard of Broken Dreams intrigued me. Obviously it's not going to be the same as Green Day's, being that she's a Japanese pop singer preforming with piano acompaniment, but she has an amazing voice (This recording doesn't really do her justice... if you can get the video to work, I suggest listening to the song after it, Passion, as well. It's certainly one of her best)
Dry_Ice Posted March 16, 2006 Posted March 16, 2006 holy shit thats the girl how sings "Simple And Clean" on Kingdom Hearts Soundtrack and game....sweet....i havent heard the cover but its probably good.
BasketCase326 Posted March 17, 2006 Posted March 17, 2006 That was so horrible I couldn't even watch the whole thing. It sucked... I said it sucked! It sucked!!!!!! IT SUCKED!!!!!!!!!!!!! She should stick to her own songs, not Green Day!Also can someone give me the link to hear the cover of Basketcase that Avril did? I want to hear it.
kougirah Posted May 17, 2006 Posted May 17, 2006 i like her a lot, but the first time i ever even heard of her was when i played kh. and so forth with all the other games. i heart kingdom hearts. hehe. oh well, my point is, she did good with that song and i think she's an all around good singer anyway. even though i've only heard 2 songs....hah. (Simple and Clean, and Sanctuary)
anniewoo Posted May 17, 2006 Posted May 17, 2006 and i hate japaneese (sp?) people even more you and I aren't getting on well are we?I quite liked that actually. she went a bit flat in places though.
death_has_a_shadow Posted May 17, 2006 Posted May 17, 2006 i'm a fan of utada hikaru but i don't think she should have covered that song.
nak321 Posted May 17, 2006 Posted May 17, 2006 its okay, bit cringey though, anyone else think shes really pretty..?yea she is really pretty. i liked it, but some parts were a bit screechy
Beej Posted May 17, 2006 Posted May 17, 2006 I liked it. I think Utada has a beautiful voice... I first fell her voice in Kingdom Hearts as well. Of the original is best, no doubt about that. But she gave it a good go. I think the way Billie sings it is better just because it has less emotion... his voice isn't as much sad as it is numb sounding. Which I think goes with the songs much better. But I liked it anyways. She's cool in my book. And I think she's pretty too.
GreenDayChick Posted May 17, 2006 Posted May 17, 2006 She's pretty good but I don't like the way she sing it, a little bit too waily or how you spell it...Mariah Carey likely...GOD DAMMIT!! The pianist is great
whatevergirl1 Posted May 17, 2006 Posted May 17, 2006 I like her voice and i've listened to some of her music before this, and she's not bad. I didn't like it that much though :/ . maybe cuz i just hate it when artists cover Green Day, i dunno. I noticed in the comments on that page someone said Billie joe's voice was monotonous during the song, and i don't think that's true. She just put much more emotion, lol
Chaz Posted May 18, 2006 Posted May 18, 2006 isn't this the chick that sung Simple and Clean from Kingdom Hearts?
The Flunkie Only Along For The Ride Posted May 18, 2006 Posted May 18, 2006 aw man i wanted 2 be the 1st person 2 re-do a gd song...... wait......no1 famous has done a gd song, rite?..
punkrock-chick Posted May 18, 2006 Posted May 18, 2006 Nope.Probaly is bad anyways...I HATE remakes....same here
Adine Posted May 18, 2006 Posted May 18, 2006 uh... never heard. may be good, may be not.. BUT usually those remakes are not as goos as the orginal versions.
Kane Posted May 18, 2006 Posted May 18, 2006 She brings a sense of happiness to the song. Which is good to listen to for comparing.Although it dosn't quite sound right. Somewhat like she's forcing it; And going a bit to high. (Not for her voice, Just the song in general..)Interesting, though.
Sham Posted May 18, 2006 Posted May 18, 2006 I think Green Day did it WAY better, but it's not bad for a cover.
St_Jimmy_10 Posted May 18, 2006 Posted May 18, 2006 Wtf is that?? :down: Green Day's will allways be better.
iamwhatsername13 Posted May 19, 2006 Posted May 19, 2006 yes green days will always be better but kingdom hearts is a disney videogame
