  • It can but rarely in my experience. Who did the cover you mentioned?

    • I enjoyed the version done in the movie "Across the Universe." Slowing the song down conveyed the meaning of the song better in my opinion.

      • You should look up Rufus Wainwright's version.

      • Of course it can. Since it is done by a different artist and often a different style. You should check the metal version of "My milkshakes". Its so much better. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9ESzOzU8vZo&feature=share&list=UUdQcFHghP7h5WmPM0lVZp2A&index=4
