Cover songs that missed the mark

Some songs are classics and should never be covered by another artist. Unfortunately, this doesn't stop other singers from trying. Over the years, musicians have chosen, for one reason or another, to do a cover of another artist's music. Whether to pay tribute or because they think they can do it better, the songs are recreated (with extremely mixed results). This gallery will name and shame over two dozen stars who tried and failed to recreate musical masterpieces. From the most recent 2024 Democratic National Convention cover by John Legend to the likes of Madonna and Duran Duran, not even the big stars are immune to the blunders sometimes associated with covering another's music. Curious about which artists' cover songs didn't succeed? Click through the gallery to find out.

Kids' movies that are equally entertaining for adults

Over the years, screens have become more and more incorporated into parenting. The means may have changed, once VHS and antennas and now iPads and Netflix, but the fact of the matter is that they’re everywhere. That doesn’t mean it’s all bad! Watching movies as a family can be a fantastic way to bond. You enter the emotional ride together, one person’s laughter at a joke can make another laugh even harder, and you all come away from it with the same moral lesson delivered. Of course, that all depends on picking the right movie. There’s nothing less useful than sitting children down in front of a TV, flicking on whatever mind-numbing movie is playing, and going off to do something else. Instead, why not take advantage of the wide range of movies that you enjoyed as a kid, or watch a new film that everyone can enjoy together? The children’s film industry isn’t just creating animations that will capture young people’s attention for an hour and a half—these days, most children’s movies are catered towards their parents, AKA the paying customers. And it’s working! There are so many hidden jokes and veiled analogies in children’s films that they’re enjoyable for people of any age. Pick from this long list of flicks that are sure to leave you with the warm, lasting joy created only by shared laughter, endearing characters, and quality time.

The greatest crooners of all time

We'll always have a place in our hearts for smooth-singing crooners. Decades ago, a number of charming men captivated audiences with their jazz-infused heartfelt singing. Crooning's popularity rose in the 1920s, when singers started to make the most of the new, dynamic range covered by microphones. Voices could be heard differently, and finer details picked up on. It's as if these singers were whispering sweet nothings in our ears. The style evolved over the years to incorporate more pop elements, as well as other music genres. And while many of the great ones are no longer among us, some contemporary singers are still carrying the flag for crooners. In this gallery, we travel to the bygone golden era when crooners dominated the charts and remember some of the greatest of all time. But we also show you there's still hope for the present and future! Ready? Click on!
