Favorite remake

Subject: Favorite remake Fri Jun 08, 2007 3:32 pm

I was listening to the compilation "Making God Smile" -the tribute to Beach boy Brian Wilson, and heard an excellent remake of Good Vibrations by Phil Keaggy.
So I thought, "what is your favorite remake by a Christian artist ?"

I'm partial to Illustrator's "Help is on its way" (Originally by Little River Band)
and "Carry on Wayward son" by Rachel Rachel (orig by Kansas)

I think he means cover songs. I really like the following:

"Why Don't You Look Into Jesus" by Holy Soldier (Larry Norman)
"Eagle" by Rob Rock (Abba)
"Surrender" by Deliverance (Stryper)

A remake is a remake!!!

But, if we're talkin' cover tunes, my favorite is Holy Soldier's "Shelter". It was originally done by the Rolling Stones.

How could I forget this?!?!? I LOVE this album!! It's probably my 1st or 2nd favorite Guardian album. They kicked major tail with that one. I like it better than Stryper's version.

I'm a little slow.... I didn't realize Staybrite already did this "cover songs" topic back in May... Embarassed

Sorry guys. But hey, there's a few here that wasn't on Staybrites.

Another self remake I love:

Stryper's remake of the song "In God We Trust".

Well that old thread was just about Christian bands doing secular covers, so do me that seems like a completely different subject.

Some of my favorite cover songs

Eagle - Rob Rock (orig Abba) fantastic cover
Somebody to Love - Rez (orig Jefferson Airplane)

Despite the fact that I am not a huge modern rock fan I kinda dig Pillars version of the U2 Classic "Sunday Bloody Sunday"
