Lazy Remaking Of Songs

Ooooh, this is something that really gets my goat, not because the remakes are rubbish (sometimes they are surprisingly good) it's the fact that they always play the song in a different tempo to the one that you are used to, so when you sing along to the song, you generally sing along too fast and when you start a new verse or the chorus, you come in too early, this makes you look stupid and look unable to keep in time with a song, but it's not your fault! it's the people who have made the songs fault, they should have left the tempo as it was, my recent example for this was 'Birdhouse in your soul' it was on some tv show and it was slow and I looked like I'd never heard the song before, (I have heard it before) but then there is that really famous version of 'Money (that's what I want)' by the flying lizzards, I mean it's a really good version but I get all the bits wrong and I bet I'm not the only one, I say don't remake it unless you remake it exactly the same.
