Motley Crue Featuring Dolly Parton “Home Sweet Home”

Motley Crue have teamed up with Dolly Parton for a new version of their 1985 classic “Home Sweet Home”, because, well, why not?

I mean it’s Dolly.

Dolly still has it, ya’ll!

The remake is to promote Motley Crue’s career-spanning compilation album “From the Beginning” which comes out September 12th.

Carrie Underwood Joins Papa Roach Onstage for “Last Resort”

Carrie Underwood is your All-American girl next year, just with an incredible set of pipes (and legs)! She usually stays in the Country and Gospel lane, but every now and again, Carrie puts on her rock girl panties and it’s always glorious.

She’s toured with Guns N’ Roses before (talk about legit, right?), and recently joined Papa Roach onstage for a version of “Last Resort”, and she owns it:


Dammit, woman, is there anything she can’t sing?

She also performed the single that she has out with Papa Roach called “Leave a Light On”, and all proceeds from this song go to suicide prevention:

If you weren’t aware of this song, here’s the actual recorded version:

Badass, and for a great cause.

Honestly, a Carrie Underwood rock covers album wouldn’t be a bad idea, am I right?

Let’s make this happen, ok?

Lynyrd Skynyrd and Jelly Roll “Tuesday’s Gone” Live

Ok, I was totally loving this.

One of my all-time favorite Southern Rock bands- Lynyrd Skynyrd- teamed up with Jelly Roll for a pretty solid rendition of “Tuesday’s Gone” as a part of Lynyrd Skynyrd’s upcoming album “Celebrating 50 Years-Live at The Ryman”.

Now, “Tuesday’s Gone” is one of my absolute favorite songs of all time, and this was, in my opinion, a pretty cool performance of it:


This song hits me deep in my soul every time.

One of my core memories is being 21, front row at a Skynyrd concert at Skullbone Music Park in Skullbone, TN.

June 4th, 2004.

Me and my best friend Erica singing this song at the top of our lungs in the pouring rain…

It doesn’t get better than that.

“Celebrating 50 Years- Live at the Ryman” will be available on June 27th, and I can’t wait for the rest!

Mad respect to this band for keeping is going for so long, and still delivering!

Dua Lipa Performs AC/DC’s “Highway to Hell”

Damn.

Dua Lipa just earned some more of my respect.

I’ve always liked the pop star, who has a great, strong voice and catchy songs… but I didn’t realize how good her vocals actually are until just now.

She brought her “Radical Optimism” tour to Melbourne, Australia, and took a chance at covering the iconic Aussie band AC/DC’s “Highway to Hell” in concert, and it paid off I’d say:


Damn, Dua Lipa.

Yeah, I had no idea she had that in her. Mad respect!

Check out where she’ll be next at DuaLipa.com

She definitely went up a few notches for me with this performance. Well done!

Post Malone and Nirvana “Smells Like Teen Spirit”!

This is pretty damn cool…

Last night, it was the SNL 50th Anniversary Concert Special, and Nirvana reunited again with the surviving members (Dave Grohl, Krist Novoselic, and Pat Smear) and… Post Malone!

I mean, why not?

Dude is everywhere lately.

Check out their performance of the iconic “Smells Like Teen Spirit” below:


I mean… nothing compares to the original, obviously, but I thought that was pretty cool.

Is there anything that Post Malone can’t do? Rock, Hip Hop, Country… what’s next… Opera?

I honestly wouldn’t be shocked.

Also, how cool is it that we got two Nirvana performances is the past month?

 

Maybe more in the future?

A girl- ok, a middle-aged woman- can hope!

Lady Gaga and Brian Johnson of AC/DC Performing “Highway to Hell” on “Carpool Karaoke”!

Well, this is pretty damn cool.

“Carpool Karaoke” is back for a holiday edition, and Lady Gaga is joined by Brian Johnson of AC/DC for an impromptu version of “Highway to Hell”, and of course, it’s badass:

Damn. Lady Gaga is next level on the talent scale.

And now I can’t stop singing “Highway to Hell”. Just not nearly as good as Gaga does it.

You can watch the full version on Apple TV+- available now.

Here’s the teaser for it- Gaga, Chappell Roan AND Dua Lipa?

Hell yes!

Broken Peach “Call Me/I Was Made For Lovin’ You”

I just now discovered Broken Peach and I am already obsessed.

Broken Peach is a rock and sould band that specializes in mash-ups and having thier own unique sound, which is rare for a cover band.

Check out their latest release- a mash-up of Blondie’s “Call Me” and Kiss “I Was Made For Loving You”.

This is easily the coolest thing I have seen/heard in a while:

Absolutely the coolest.

Now excuse me while I dive down the rabbit hole on this incredible band.

“Thunderstruck” Halloween Light Display

Tis’ the season for excessive Halloween Light Shows, and I am all for it.

One video that is making the rounds his Halloween season is this  AC/DC “Thunderstruck” display, and I can’t even begin to imagine how much this cost.


Ok, the Pumpkin Broadcasters are a little much, but the actual light display is badass!

I love classic rock, and also, this is the Dallas Cowboy Cheerleaders signature song (don’t ask me why, but I love me some DCC!) so I really enjoyed the heck out of this.

The company that puts on these incredible displays is called Magical Light Shows, and you can get more info at magicallightshows.com and also on the youtube channel: https://www.youtube.com/@TomBetGeorge

Yes, I totally went down the light show rabbit hole.

Seriously impressive.

If Iron Maiden Covered ABBA’s “Dancing Queen”

I love stuff like this.

Another favorite creator of mine is Moonic Productions, and he’s always doing random mash-ups that shouldn’ work, but they do.

Like this version of ABBA’s “Dancing Queen” in the style of Iron Maiden.

Brilliant.


Don’t lie. You were totally rocking out to that.
