One of my ALL time favorite songs "I Wanna Hold Your Hand" by The Beatles. I took this link from You Tube.

This next link is by a Beatles Cover Band, I pretty much don't like it at All but here it is.....

The reason I don't really like this particular band or really many other tribute bands is that I don't feel like they are really understanding or trying to feel the music. When I listen to The Beatles I can feel the emotion in the song especially in "I Wanna Hold Your Hand" when I listen to the other bands I really only hear noise. These bands picked The Beatles to cover because they are a UBER FAMOUS group and they know that people will listen to them, not because they love The Beatles or because they even love the songs. The second Video was not good, in my eyes. They focused a lot more on the instruments, where the original is SOOOOOOOOO about the words. this is just my opinion, yours may be different, I would love to hear feedback!
