I know i am....they think they are so damn cool doing covers of other peoples music. The challenge is not playing the music--its coming up with it!!! I play covers PRIVATELY, but i will never record myself on Youtube doing one on drums or guitar or whatever. With me, i need to put something on there that I created myself, i dont like copying! Am I crazy or do you agree with me?

Ok, someone just gave a link to some videos they did on their harmonica...cool and good, but i still say showing off how well one does covers is annoying...to ME. No one has to agree. There is a way to be creative in everything. Theres a market for choc. covered roaches, a market for booger-tasting ice-cream; and people act like the only way to make it is by copying and pasting???!!

I disagree with you. There are some bad covers on there which shouldn't even be called covers but there are some very nice covers which show you exactly the style that you play them.
What I can't stand is a band who play live and then just play covers. Now that is unoriginal and shows that they have no clue when it comes to making something of their own. Just put a CD on, if you want to hear covers.

I disagree with you, here's why: http://video-downloads.12freemusic.com/blog/harmonica.htm as you can see, it's myself doing all sort of covers, not a single composition by myself, for the reason that I have never composed any song and that I enjoy playing musics I like. So of course I enjoy listening to other people covering songs on Youtube. And jazz standards especially.

no your right about that, it's irratating, however if they would put the artist and copy-right info that be differnt. In college you have to list music credits in movie-making classes and it gets drilled in your head.

I agree with you 100%. Copying somebody elses song might even violate copyright laws (and probably does unless the song is not copyrighted or the copyright has expired) and can get them into BIG trouble.
