Members Hamer Player Posted July 25, 2005 Members Share Posted July 25, 2005 I saw a band cover this song last week. The band was a 4 piece, all male. They tried to do No Doubt's "Hellagood" but that song without Gwen's sex appeal is nothing. I don't reccommend any other bands try it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Tedddy Posted July 25, 2005 Members Share Posted July 25, 2005 is Hella Good the one with the heavy breathing? I could see how that wouldn't be very appealing performed by males. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members fastplant Posted July 25, 2005 Members Share Posted July 25, 2005 My old band did Hella Good with male vocals. People loved it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Jeff da Weasel Posted July 25, 2005 Members Share Posted July 25, 2005 No, man. No. That's wrong on a level that can't be explained through mere words. No guy should cover that song. Ever. Even under duress. Like, if there's some crazy-ass mobster pointing a 12-guage at you demanding to hear "Hella Good", you should die before giving in and doing it. Or pull up some chick from the audience to sing it. Whatever's easiest. - Jeff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members BillyWa Posted July 26, 2005 Members Share Posted July 26, 2005 We did, Are You Gonna Be My Girl, with a female singer - that rawked a lot of heads. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members riffdaddy Posted July 26, 2005 Members Share Posted July 26, 2005 In my old band I sang Otis Redding's "Hard To Handle". When I left, the girl lead singer took over the tune, but didn't bother to do any gender correction. Were she not my best friend's wife, I would totally get off on that.

Members Mr. Botch Posted July 26, 2005 Members Share Posted July 26, 2005 I wasn't gonna embarrass myself but I saw Jeff's protestations so I will. An MP3 of us doing Hellagood can be heard here. We do leave out the heavy breathing, and it packs the floor every time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members wheresgrant3 Posted July 28, 2005 Members Share Posted July 28, 2005 Fastplant... which band is that covering the song... Worthy Cause or another. I'd like to check you guys out sometime... maybe in Springfield. I used to play Geraldine's and Fat Cat's a while back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was a band called SideShow ( www.sideshowband.com ) I'm the bassist in that band (and the guy on the mic that was basically turned off in that recording, haha). We rarely play out anymore, but we played at Geraldine's a few times. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
