This is the 2nd edit of this post.

The videos in the original OP were not "spoilered." In the 1st re-edit they were. Now in the 2nd re-edit—or 2nd edit—I've put in the names as per my later posts.

I've also added (I think) 26 more videos, among them:

And I Love Her - The Beatles (cover)
Eight Days A Week - The Beatles (girls band cover)
If I fell (The Beatles cover)
Please Please Me - The Beatles (girls band cover)
Ticket To Ride - The Beatles (cover)
Lez Zeppelin - Rock'n roll - LIVE PARIS 2013
Lez Zeppelin performing "The Ocean".
【Zepparella】 Bring It On Home (Concord - 10/7/17)
ALYONA (THE OCEAN) LED ZEPPELIN COVER with Chris Slade (AC/DC)
JILLIAN RAE - the Ocean [Led Zeppelin cover] @ 7th Street Entry
Lady Zep (a medley of Rock 'n' Roll, Immigrant Song, Communications Breakdown, The Ocean, She's Just a Aoman)
Whole Lotta Love - Moby Chick
Dollface ~ Walk This Way (Aerosmith) Cover
ThundHerStruck "Shook Me All Night Long"
Chick Quest – Savant Garde (Music Video) | Heartbreaking Bravery
CCR Susie-Q
Susie Q (Creedence Clearwater Revival Cover) - by ILARIA
Jimmy Buffett- Margaritaville cover
Sister Golden Hair - America (cover)
Dollface ~ My Sharona (The Knack) Cover

Fiona Apple - Angel (Jimi Hendrix Cover) 1997
Izy Riff - Angel (Jimi Hendrix) Cover
Looks That Kill, Motley Crue female cover
So Projet Gabriel - Steam (Peter Gabriel tribute band)


I'll probably remove this italicized message in a few weeks.


Also included are (generally) gender-specific proper nouns, and/or where a good majority of people giving a decent listen to a song would agree that she's (or they're, in the case of a group of women) singing about another woman (or women).

Of course (many of) these songs are spiced with romance and/or eroticism (and/or, perhaps, love too):
"Something in the way she woos me...,"
"She told me to come, but I was already there."



from a thread of mine in another forum: women who sing male POV songs by men, without changing the gender-specific pronouns

Perhaps the best replies to my posts in this thread are: #21 and #32.



Crimson and Clover

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crimson_and_Clover





https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php..._Peterson-Hind



(plays violin like it was a ukulele)



Beatles

calling it "the greatest love song of the past 50 years".











https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ain't_...by_the_Beatles




https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/I've_Just_Seen_a_Face




















Lez Zeppelin

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lez_Zeppelin

Possibly the best part of this 11:19 video is the first 40 seconds or so when they do a great rendition of a part of Bring It On Home. (Though, unfortunately perhaps, female-Jimmy-Page doesn't play a double neck guitar in any of these videos.)

Again it starts with a rendition of a part of Bring It On Home: a decent 30-second one.








Zepparella

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zepparella

(she uses a bow during part of the next song)



(The next song is probably my favourite cover of the Zepparella covers here, even though (I think) the vocalist skipped a few lines.)


While I prefer Lez Zeppelin's 40 seconds as it's hard hitting, blues fans might prefer this. Mind you, the blues here sounds a little funkified.




Lady Zep

(Lady-Robert-Plant is somewhat scantily clad, but they sound pretty proficient.)




https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Whole_Lotta_Love

(additional use of harmonica in next song)






https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black_Dog_(song)





(amplified violin)

(3 guys, female vocalist. Lead guitarist looks like Willie Nelson's younger Russian cousin, but plays with energy and exuberance. I was thinking of not including it due to sound quality, but decided to as it's well performed.)



Aerochix

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aerochix







https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/You_Sh...All_Night_Long








Gloria: I think they got your number.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gloria...to_Tozzi_song)




(R.I.P. Laura Brannigan )
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Laura_Branigan


some sung in English.

I think she sings it in Swedish.

I think she sings it in Finnish—novel at any rate.

I think she sings it in Korean.

good drumbeat in this cover



Proof (or at least proof-of-sorts) that a guy wrote it:



cover of the other Gloria song






"Girl you make me feel alright."



https://www.gigsalad.com/the_gemini_band_merritt_island





https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/L_A_Woman

(for bigger pics of these, click these)
first, second, third, fourth, fifth, and sixth



The next two are essentially karaoke. In the first one, she looks like she's drinking a mug of tea. She's done a number of covers but the one below is the best—at least the most amusing.






(The great guitarist is herself quite attractive. )




https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Girl_from_Ipanema






https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/My_Sharona

(I might just like the next cover better than the original—as worthy as that is, and that her Spanish accent coming out in the song make it more endearing to me.)








others:



John Fogert's version is the most lust-filled, but this one's pretty good.


"Some people claim there's a woman to blame. But I know, it's my own damn fault."







could be a FFM threesome
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FFM





The backup vocals sound male, but the lead singer is female.


At this point, I'm really stretching it, but the female backup singer is prominent enough in this decent cover.




and a contribution a someone from the thread I have in the other forum

which inspired me to search for covers and find this:

Dude, 75 YouTube embeds in one post is waaaaaaaaaaay too much. Put some of that in a spoiler tag for the sake of those with crappy computers. Rule of thumb is like 5 videos or less.

This. Come on mate.

^true, my computer can't handle this. Like my heart couldn't handle that Joan Jett cover of Crimson and Clover the first time I heard it. Great thread

Actually after viewing some of these my gaydar makes me wonder if some of these aren't lesbian cultural appropriation. Or my gaydar's broke

Edit: wait you put Veruca Salt in there, that's cool. That band has more gay innuendoes than Buffy and Faith
That Somebody song is too soppy for me though

My number of embeds was mentioned in Political Discussions for Adults Political Discussions for Adults (page 141)

If I had my way, I'd post it, but apparently, I can't link here, I can only embed. Pity.

While I don't want to cramp the styles of tablet or phone users—or desktops weaker than the one I bought used and am using—I wonder if the technological singularity that's reportedly just over-the-horizon will be able to handle 75 Youtube videos—I don't look forward to seeing a lot of stuff one would have to click to just see the names of the videos.

Can anybody show me an examples of posts with videos with spoiler tags?

I hope this is not a problem, because less than 50 hours after joining this site, I've taken a liking to it.






Took me awhile to like it myself until I finally noticed the obvious about her covering that song.

Another fantasy of that song is a remake of the song where in the guitar-solo-of-sorts they take a feature from Tubular Bells and instead have lots of stringed instruments playing that riff: guitar, double-speed guitar, slightly distorted electric guitar, mandolin, violin, banjo, erhu, et al.

Thanks.


Oh boy, I wonder what it'll make my thread look like: 75 "click-to-view" buttons?


I searched "cultural appropriation" here:

Cultural Identity
The Lounge

Cultural Imperialism and the Homogenization of the Western World
Current Events, Philosophy, & Religion

The International Cultural Exchange
The Lounge

I doubt 10% of those in the videos—to pull a number out of the air—are lesbian. Of course "lesbian" like "gay" might be constructions, or sticking to a word I'm more sure of using, abstractions—gender and orientation fluidity and all of that.

Plus even if tech wasn't an issue, people are more likely to gloss over your posts if it seems like there's more video than input. We want to hear what you have to say, we can look up the videos ourselves if we need to. On that subject I don't think that anyone is really interested in your other forum. If you want to make similar threads, just let the MB version be its own thing. Glad you're liking the site man, hoping to see you stick around.

Oh and you are actually able to link if you like, we just have an auto-parse function for youtube videos that make that kind of a pain.
