My Chemical Romance's Frank Iero covers The Ronettes' 'Be My Baby'.
My Chemical Romance's Frank Iero recently recorded a cover of The Ronettes and Phil Spector's classic single, 'Be My Baby'.
About his cover, Iero says: "Ok so for those of you that don't already know, i made a soundcloud account about a month or so ago. i had made a comment on twitter about how much i hate xmas music and ended up getting a ton of slack about it (weird how many people love all things xmas, and hate all things humbug)... so naturally i thought it would be a great idea to take that one step further and write a song called xmas sux and post it on the interweb for all the whos in whoville to enjoy. i did it on logic in about 15 min and it made more people angry, which in turn made me laugh so.....basically 1+3+2 carry the 4 = success!
Anyway, now to commemorate the launching of this here webbersnite i've decided to post another song. a few months ago i went into my good friend's studio, north end, and together we stayed up late, had some drinks, and made some music. one of the things that survived that session was a cover of 'Be My Baby', originally written by Phil Spector, Jeff Barry, and Ellie Greenwich and made famous by the Ronettes in 1963. i played all the noises and my friend eddie recorded them. 'Be My Baby' was once one of the greatest songs ever made... please click on my teeth to be magically teleported to my soundcloud page, where you can listen to how i have destroyed it. xofrnk"
