Dr. Martens Celebrates 50 Years With The DM50 Cover Album

Dr. Martens Celebrates 50 Years With The DM50 Cover Album

I got my first pair of Dr. Martens when I was in 6th grade.  It was a really big deal, because they were like $100 – and I bought them with my own money.  They made my feet look enormous, because  at the time I was nothing but elbows and feet, but I wore them with pride.   When I first heard about the DM50 project I started thinking about the kind of music I associated with Dr. Martens, and of course my mind wandered back to the halls of my middle school.  During that ‘phase’ I was really into Meatloaf.  Luckily, you won’t find a cover of “I Would Do Anything For Love” on this album.

To celebrate their 50th anniversary Dr. Martens produced an album to represent the spirit of the people who’ve worn Dr. Martens over the years.  They asked ten artists to record covers of  classic songs, then ten directors produced videos to accompany the tracks.  All of the songs can be downloaded FOR FREE over at 50.drmartens.com.


Participating Artists Include:

My favorite so far is the Ravonettes cover of The Stone RosesI Wanna Be Adored“.

The song that will never die is back again.  Irish duo Jedward puts it’s spin on Vanilla Ice‘s Ice Ice Baby, and Queen‘s Under Pressure.  The video even features an appearance by Mr. Ice himself.  Anyone else feel like they are watching an F-ed up version of Glee?
