Switchfoot Covers Beyonce’s Crazy in Love

jon_foreman.jpgJon Foreman of the band Switchfoot talks about mixing things up at their shows:

“We really don’t try to do the same show twice,” he said. “We feed off the audience’s energy and that affects how the show goes. We perform mostly our own stuff but every now and then we’ll thrown in an ironic cover. The other night, we did Beyonce’s “Crazy in Love.”

    I like it when bands do covers you’d never expect them too. I like this cover, and I kinda like Switchfoot too.

    This actually isn’t too bad.

    I’m not crazy about Switchfoot, but they’re solid and I’ve never heard a song from them that I hated.

    I actually hated it. It’s an embarrassment for a band that releases solid material to ruin a song like that.

    Did not like Switchfoot’s cover. But I’ll admit, the first I heard this song was a cover; by the Powerhouse house band (mostly members of Hillsong United and a local R&B group). They played a blazing, off-the-hook version of this song, with crunching guitars and a real! horn section…I mixed the music that night and was blown away…went out and downloaded the original and was severely let down. Tulele Falatolo and the gang totally have it over Beyonce and her chums. And Switchfoot? Stick to the alt-rock, methinks.
