List of S.H.E covers and parodies
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
S.H.E is a Taiwanese girl group that specializes in pop music, and is also known to have covered many songs during their musical career. Of the 90 songs the group has sung, 24 of those are covers. Occasionally, S.H.E parodies music from other works, including classical and folk pieces. The song "Thanks for Your Gentleness" uses the chorus from Mayday's "Gentle and Soft."
In earlier S.H.E albums, nearly half of the tracks were cover songs; however, as the group's career progressed, cover songs were gradually phased out. Although Sweetbox's "Chyna Girl" and "More Than Love" are more widespread in the Western world, they were, in fact, preceded by "Super Star" and "I Love You," respectively. HIM International hired Geo for both works. Among the artists whose songs were covered by S.H.E, Sweetbox has been covered most frequently, leading the way with four songs.
