Just came across this. Crowded House’s Neil Finn covering a Hunters and Collectors track which I absolutely love and reminds me of my first visit to Australia as a 15 year old.

Original…

How many times did you visit Australia as a 15 year old?

I’ve always loved Skins voice. She’s done a few good covers and i particularly enjoy this one.

Brilliant live too. Saw them last year. Still going strong.

Yeah, seen them loads of times. There isn’t a song that she can’t do as well live as the studio sound. Not many singers can do that. She did train as an opera singer originally.
This is one of their own, so just call it Pavarotti doing a cover.

Not sure if this truly qualifies as a cover as Carter is in the mix, but this…

I love Hayseed Dixie… :grin:

There’s something about the naivety of this version that makes it captivating. :thinking:

I must say she is a fantastic performer. My wife and I went to see her at Bournemouth BIC back in the '90s and not a dry seat in the house after that song.

I have to say I felt the most effeminate kd lang fan in the audience that night…no tats, or motorcycle gear.
