Ehhhh, I'm not feeling it. It completely loses the lush tones of the original in favor of something unnecessarily harder. The Skin Diary one posted above is so much better.

Damn, that's an awesome cover! Not everything has to have the same vocals of the original.
It really reminds me Screaming Females cover of "If it Makes You Happy"

I've heard this a lot over the past couple of days while my wife is scrolling through TikTok. Seems like it's blowing up on there. Same with Dreams by Fleetwood Mac.
I like that it has a sort of dirt rough sound to it.
It's interesting, it's very Janis Joplin like.
The audio only version shared later in the thread is way better quality and does the cover more justice

In terms of weird covers that really work I love Springsteen's cover of Stayin' Alive. He was in the Gibbs' hometown and they threw this together on the day with multiple guitar solos (including one by Tom Morello), strings, horns and just about everything else. It's really different from the disco version, but at least for me it really works.
I love watching the one Asian lady in the strings who's behind Bruce in the center shot, she's got this "holy shit, can you believe what we're doing" smile for much of the song...

I don't like either of them. Maybe Cyrus just isn't my cup of tea. And White Stripes did Jolene much better.
She's a performer. I'm not really a fan of her music, but she's not bad. This particular cover is all right, but it doesn't necessarily feel like it knows what it wants to be.
I thought this one was fun. Again, the performance is not bad, but I especially like that the crowd was not into it at all at first but she really sells it to them over the course of the song.

I didn't like it that much, way too "screamy" for me.
But I mean, Miley Cyrus is a good performer IMO

Yo now THIS one kills. I'm a sucker for these kinds of reinterpreted covers.
I think it's truly horrible. She sings it with no nuance or subtlety, a foghorn blaring where Debbie Harry actually made it sound sexy. And Miley can sing! Subtlety may not be her trademark, but she can do better than this.
I hate it.
I hate it.
HAHA. I am so borrowing this from now on.
Not a fan of this cover. Now her Jolene cover was something else.
I think there are parts of this that sound nice. It's not fantastic, but I like it enough. Obviously nowhere near as good as the original, but that's a tough bar to clear.
Soooo you would prefer a cover of Heart of Glass done by Debbie Harry then
Heart of Glass was a bad cover; this is real good.
She's also making an entire album of Metallica covers??

I've noticed that as well
I love her style too, also love how her voice has changed over the years
I actually like a lot of the things Miley has been doing but not this. A straight cover with no new arrangements, texture... and it just doesn't work as well without Debbie Harry's crystalline voice, even if I like Miley's in other stuff. Don't love it to be honest.
