There! I did it! I defiled a timeless work of art!

Sir George Martin’s “In My Life”, meant to be his farewell album, gathered some unlikely personalities covering Beatles songs, with Sir George producing, of course. Having Jim Carrey do a cover may seem like a joke, much less something iconic like I Am The Walrus, but… well listen for yourself.

I guess Jim proves on this track his performance of the Might Mouse theme in the Man On The Moon was no fluke. A great set of pipes, and the progression from just plain crazy to totally deranged is perfect for the song.

We hardly knew ye. Well its not like it’ll make me lose any sleep, as Chris demonstrates so well in the “Unplugged in Sweden” set, he does much better on his own, and while I am not a huge Rage Against the Machine fan, the music is definitely more compelling than Audioslave’s.

So rock on, Chris Cornell. Rock on, Rage.

Right, this is part two of a double-bill. Check out part one.

This is a rocking take of Mother, Mother by Dilana from the Rock Star: Supernova contest. What she lacks in skill and musicianship compared to Tracy Bonham, she makes up for with this incredible energy. It is probably a good thing she did not win, as playing with those old guys would have held her back.

Tracy Bonham was one of the best female singers from the alternative rock boom. She is still making great music. This is a great acoustic performance of Mother, Mother, her big single. She is obviously having a lot of fun.
