Anna Nalick covers “Breaking The Girl”

13:52:48 CET | Viewed 504 times |

On her new EP, Shine, Anna Nalick has covered RHCP’s Breaking The Girl. It’s up to both her and the guys’ fans to decide if this is actually good or it’s as catastrophic as Taylor Daine or (god forbid) All Saints’ take at Under The Bridge; or as hillarous and brilliant as Dick Brave’s take on Give It Away or Richard Cheese’s swing-jazz short version of Suck My Kiss.

Here’s an excerpt of the review:

Also included is a sparse and piercing cover of the Red Hot Chili Peppers’ track, “Breaking the Girl,” which Nalick strikingly turns on its head. She sticks to Anthony Kiedis’ lyrical point of view, thus enriching the already-beguiling sense of this song.

You can read the whole review of Anna’s effort at the following link and listen/buy the song here. The whole EP is available here.

What an awful cover! Absolutely terrible, and I like Anna Nalick. There’s no punch like Anthony, it sounds to pop with her voice and the guitar is boring. She didn’t do anything with it. I bet Kelly Clarkson could do it better. I need to get it out of my head and listen to the original RHCP masterpiece.
