The discussion centers around the concept of strange or bizarre covers of well-known songs, inviting participants to share their finds. One notable example is Gregorian's cover of Deep Purple's "Child in Time," which elicited mixed reactions, with some finding it strange yet enjoyable. The thread emphasizes that covers should not be simply poor performances but rather skilled interpretations that evoke a sense of incongruity. Participants discuss various covers, including classical musicians interpreting pop songs, and the subjective nature of what constitutes "strange." The conversation highlights the diversity of musical interpretations, with some covers being seen as creative while others may come off as awkward or unappealing. The thread encourages sharing links to both the original songs and their unusual covers, fostering a community exploration of music's eccentricities.
