Fleetwood Mac’s “Landslide” has been covered a number of times, from the Dixie Chicks to “Glee,” and now, Miley Cyrus.
Miley has been performing the cover on her Gypsy Heart Tour. She recently performed the song in Brisbane, Australia:
I love her upbeat tracks, but she sounds so pretty like this. It’s slowed down and just about the song. “The Climb” was a huge hit for her, and that was a ballad, too.
What do you think of Miley’s cover, Lovelies? Do you hope she does more songs like this?

I’m not a Miley fan, but she does a pretty good job. There are a couple parts where she’s flat and not with the guitar, but pretty good.
….What is she wearing btw? See. Not a Miley fan.

Eh, Dixie Chicks did a better job in my opinion. Miley has a nice voice but I don’t think this is the song for her.
And @emotastic7@xanga - Seriously. o_o what is she wearing? It looks like a shiny bathing suit with a cover-up.
guest
The Smashing Pumpkins will always be the best at singing Landslide in my opinion. <3
But yes, I agree that Miley should sing ballads more often. It works for her voice, definitely.

Not a Miley fan and I don’t think she does a good job with this song. Her voice is edgy and crisp and this song is NOT.

I’ll never understand why people care about what she wears on stage. It’s a stage costume. It’s supposed to be flashy, and it’s not really all that inappropriate, but whatever.
I think her voice fits the song very well. It’s perfect for Stevie’s style.

I feel that if Miley did more ballads like this, The Climb, When I Look At You, etc. people would listen to her more often. But she does try a bit TOO hard to get away from her Disney roots by rebelling but I feel that as she gets older, she’ll mature more and hopefully perform more of these types of songs.

It’s pretty bad…. I actually really like her raspy voice but it really doesn’t work with the song, and hearing an 18 year old sing about this stuff is just well laughable. The fist pumping also makes it more comedic than meaningful.
I feel bad for her tits though. They must’ve been crying in pain.

I can’t help but always be so critical with performances, what with having been a music major. She was flat and stuff, but she’s nervous obviously but overall, I think she did a decent job. Dixie Chicks did do a better job but it works for her voice, considering it’s so deep.
guest
I really do NOT like her voice. My ears hurt from this, just like her song The Climb (although her voice is a little better in that song).
If anyone is looking for a good pushup bra, find out where Miley got that one
guest
I have a hard time with covers. It’s hard to top Stevie Nicks.
guest
Uhm. No.
guest
It’s bad enough that the annoying-as-shit Glee cast tried to cover this song. I don’t care much for Miley’s voice, so I’m not sure I want to listen. :/
guest
This is pretty nice but Fleetwood Mac is by far the best. XD

she looks like Stevie Nicks: The Hooker Version.
guest
Smashing Pumpkins; although some don’t appreciate Billy Corgan’s voice.
guest
@SentimentalDoll@xanga - yeah definitely don’t like her outfit…blah!
but i actually think she sings this song really well.

@i_heart_tha_80s@xanga - it’s an awkward getup lol. she has a great voice but I’m not sure if this was the right song for her. o: maybe just my opinion haha.
guest
Why did she cover this great song?
guest
@emotastic7@xanga - right? her “outfit” is ridiculous.
guest
I love her bra! I don’t see her outfit as ridiculous… thats how performing goes; costumes! And at certain parts, she literally looks exceptionally high…….
The song wasn’t awful. She did pretty good
guest
@SentimentalDoll@xanga - You reminded me how much I enjoy their version
guest
I love her bra. I love the glee version of this song the best though, it makes me want to cry, in a good way
guest
Way better than her Nirvana cover. This one seems to suit her voice better. Strangely, it also seems to suit her voice better than her own music. Then again, anything will suit anyone’s voice better than Miley Cyrus’s music.
guest
she was good, but her outfit is hideous.

I actually don’t like her voice with this song, but I love what she’s wearing.
I also like that Lovelyish is attempting to be nice to Miley Cyrus, kudos to ashleya for bringing some class to the Lovelyish front. It’s too bad that whenever the haterade articles are posted, they’re always posted anonymously

@Iobot@xanga - I actually really liked her Nirvana cover! Which is weird because I’ve never really listened to her before.

@MyGlosoli@xanga - Haha [: That was the first version of this song I actually heard.
guest
Stevie will ALWAYS trump Miley… Any day.
guest
I still think her voice is terrible.
guest
Eh, this song wasn’t for her. I didn’t like it.

Why is she singing this so low? She has the range
guest
@WHOAlizz@xanga - lol i was thinking she reminded me of her.. voice too.. She has less control over her voice but it’s similar…
Also people remember stevie bared a lot of skin in the 70′s as well…
It’s summer her look makes sense…
guest
holy glittery boobs batman!! ok, enough about her outfit….
she actually sounds a lot like Stevie to me, and didn’t do that bad. but i’ll always love the original the most.
guest
i love this! she sounds good.
and yes, this is a COSTUME. it’s not like she walks around daily like this.
that’s the point of stage presence.
guest
She always makes comments in magazines about how her boobs are just gigantic and they’re not …
She wishes. Pushups bras do wonders?!
guest
not really a fan… you can’t really understand what shes saying in the beginning.. and it just doesn’t sound right.

It’s okay. I still love the Dixie Chick’s cover more.
guest
I couldn’t even watch the whole video. It was awful. She’s trying to dress and act so much older than she is. She looks ridiculous. And she doesn’t have that good of a voice in my opinion.
guest
I love Miley Cyrus. This is great
guest
It’s not bad
guest
i really just do not think she has a good voice…at all.
guest
I really don’t like her voice… doesn’t matter what she sings, I still think she sucks.
guest
God awful.
Her outfit too.

I wish normal people could get away with dressing like that in public without being considered slutty.
Random thought.
guest
I honestly can’t take her singing ANYTHING (even a song as beautiful as this) seriously anymore. The stripper sparkly bra doesn’t really help either.
I agree though, her slowly songs are much prettier…but they aren’t pretty for her voice. Her voice def fits right up there with the other high pitch (annoying as frick) auto tune pop goddesses the world loves.
guest
I thought it was good, but I’m not sure why she sang it so low. I’ve always thought she was talented.
guest
her dress looks horrible and she sounds horrible!
guest
i love her voice, especially in songs like this. but i do wish she sang it a little bit higher.
i can also sing her songs really well, which i think helps my perception of her a little.
also, i really like her outfit =]
i also just generally like covers of this song, like the glee one and the one on the voice today <3
guest
she was good. but she’s no stevie nicks.
guest
she sounds flat. i don’t like it.
and what is she wearing? nice bra?
guest
Meh, I didn’t think it was that good. I really enjoyed The Climb. This song, though… I don’t really think she can hit the low notes very well.
