I love violin! When I was 6 I picked up my mom’s violin and could play it without a lesson, piano too. It’s a past life love for music!

I did a thread about remixes a few months back. Seeing how someone interprets someone elses music can be fascinating.

Back in the day, I remember the Far Corporation band and their album Division One. They did a brilliant cover of Stairway to Heaven that was lauded by Led Zeppelin themselves.

Here’s some more info from Wiki.



Far Corporation's primary claim to fame is their cover of "Stairway to Heaven". Contrary to public perception, Far Corporation was actually the first group to make the singles charts with this song as Led Zeppelin had never released it as a single. In fact, it was the only version of the song that charted on the US Billboard Hot 100, reaching #89 in October 1986...

Far Corporation released its first album Division One in 1985 on IMP/ATCO Records and their cover of "Stairway to Heaven" reached #8 on the UK Singles Chart...


And here’s a video…

I love violin too
I think cello is my favorite, but violin is amazing whether classical or fiddle.
Great song, very cool cover.


I love this version of California Dreaming (slower than the one most are accustomed to)

Lee Moses's rendition of "Hey Joe" is also so cool and soulful

This is great. "Child in Time" is one of my favorite songs of all time. Heavy before its time

Can't really top The Cars, but Deftones made a really cool cover:

Another Deftones which, while maybe not outdoing the original, certainly does it justice

Glad you liked it!! Thank you for posting an amazing song as well.


I wonder what you think of this instrument? Recorded in 1927, Washington Phillips with his hand made mysterious instrument (people have guessed it to be a dulcimer but still not entirely sure last time I checked)
Posting this one because it's a cover of a gospel


an original song by Phillips:

“What big eyes you have” I like this song! Reminds me of something but I can’t get it!

Nice one!
