Truly, the peopleonthe list shouldn't make remakes, but what's wrong with Lionel Richie?
Do you like 112&Allure remake of Lisa Lisa & Cult Jam song"All Cried Out?"

Girl, you didn't like the Ribbon in the Sky remake? I loved it! The main reason I liked it is because they didn't do like everybody else and try to match the original artist note for note. They actually rearranged it! There's a concept. But for real, I am a little sensitive on Stevie. Has anyone else heard the remake of 'All I Do'? I'd like to wring that girl's neck. As far as Mary J., c'mon, admit it. She can't sing. Nothing wrong with that. She's still okay with me. What'd Whitney say....it's not RIGHT, but it's OKAY. True that, but she knows she was DEAD WRONG for that Sweet Thang remake. Tsk, tsk, tsk. Now Kelly Price, she was right on with that Shirley Murdoch song. I am loving it! When the original came out, my parents wouldn't let us sing it, so you KNOW I'm all in it now that I'm grown. You don NOT wanna be in earshot when that song comes on in my house. Lol. You guys take care.

Cherish, I absolutely love 112 and Allure's remake of all cried out. The remake is nearly two year old and I still sing it in the car on the way to work everyday (not a pretty sight to other drivers) http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/smile.gif As a matter of fact I would buy that whole CD for that 1 song.

As far as other remakes I think it should be totally ILLEGAL to ever remake anything by:

The Temptations
Marvin Gaye
Earth, Wind and Fire
Isley Bros
Prince
The Carpenters
The Commodores

And all this is coming from a 19 year old. I think I just have an old soul.

Love,
Me

I LOVEDEDED Intro's Ribbon in The Sky remake!!! It was beautiful. I want that song at my wedding.

I love Intro, their only FAUX PAS was when they made COME INSIDE and at the end had some PILLOW TALK, the worst part was WATCH YOUR TEETH NOW!!! http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/mad.gif http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/mad.gif

I still love AS WE LAY both Shirley's and Kelly's.

What about K-Ci and JoJo's remake of "LOVE BALLAD" or K'Ci's remake of "IF YOU THINK YOU'RE LONELY NOW"??

Uh uh!! When I first heard that remake of If You Think You're Lonely Now..... I laughed my butt off! I thought it was a joke! Swear. That was not a good thing to do. That 'hoooo yeahhh' was just TOO MUCH PLAYING!

OK!! that irked me too!

okay, I can hold my fingers no longer.

I cannot stand Intro, especially after I worked for them when they dropped their one hit.

I loved "Ribbon In the Sky" and "So What" before that night. I worked tech on their concert in Atlanta. Bruce Bruce was the MC, and he actually protected me from one of them. This one fool (a roadie) kept making passes and could not take no for an answer, so Bruce let me chill in his dressing room. He was very nice.

But the short one threw a mike at the sound man vacktage because it shorted. He apologized after another song, but we were already pissed.

I was really through when the lead broke into "Come Inside." Remember that "pillow talk" part? He tried to replicate it by having an audience member "undress him" fter she stopped at the buckle, he started the pillow talk and cupped her head to mimic fellatio. You could tell she wasn't willing because you could see her fighting against his hand. http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/mad.gif

I'm still mad at Intro for messing with Stevie's "Ribbon in the Sky." That's my all-time favorite love song, but only when Mr. Wonder is singing it.

PUFFY !!! ~ how dare he ??

Coincidentally his remake of "Missing You" is on the radio right now ~ It makes me wanna tap my feet & snap my fingers, but then I think of his NERVE

Be original or just dont be !!

First of all, Kelly Price should NOT have remade "As we Lay." It is not tight. I really liked Intro's "Ribbon in the Sky," but no one can sing it like Stevie! Did y'all know that the Coolio song from the movie Dangerous Minds-"Gangster Paradise," was a Stevie original? I guess you can say I am a HUGE Stevie fan! Mary J. Blige, K-Ci and Jo-JO cannot sing and should be banned from music. All Mary do is holla through songs! Don't any get mad, I am just telling the truth!

excuse me sorors, that should be anyone! my bad!

Another person who should be arrested for doing remixes: Mariah Carey

For months it bugged me whenever I heard "I Still Believe." Cause I couldn't remember who sang it orginally (Brenda K. Starr) The orginally sounds soooooooooooo much better.

And don't even get me started on Ms Carey's remake of "The Beautiful Ones" by Prince http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/smile.gif

Heeey. *covering my ears* I don't wanna hear another ill word about Mariah. She might look like a two dollar hussie *s*, but the girl can SING! I loved the remix of "The Beautiful Ones". But then again, I never cared too much for Prince anyhow.

prospective rushee,

I hear you on Mariah just ruining a perfectly good Prince song! When I heard her version, I started laughing, then I had to just give that tape away. Now she did gain a little ground when she sampled Snoop's "It ain't no fun..." noticed I am talking about the beat, not her lyrics. I can hardly understand what she says half the time. http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/rolleyes.gif
Some songs should be labeled do not copy or sample EVER!!

I love Alicia Keys remake of "How Come you Don't Call Me Anymore." :D

Mariah Carey really messed up Phil Collins's "Against All Odds." She sounded her worst on that song.

I hated Gerald Levert's remake of "I Believe I Can Fly."

Michael Bolton really needs to stop trying to remake Classic soul songs. He F**ked up "Sexual Healing.":eek: :eek:
