Best Cover ever!

[thedevilsowne]

Hurt by Johnny Cash is so ****ing overrated. I love the song, but NIN version shits all over it. Especially live.



I haven't heard it, but War Pigs by CAKE is awesome.

Crazy Mary by Pearl Jam is probably my favourite.

Great song perfer Throw your arms around me thou think cas I still remember it an the atmosfer of when I saw it live.

Confused how you can say War Pigs by CAKE is awesome, if you haven't heard it???

For all the Nirvana Fans out from there who have like me heard Nirvana songs completly butchered over the years, this one is truely amazing.

I wish they played Crazy Mary last year.

Sorry, I meant I hadn't heard the one I was replying to - the version by FNM. I love Cake though, heard it many times!

I think that's a pretty crap cover really. If you want to here a cool interpretation of a Cure song, look up Bat For Lashes' cover of A Forest.

Love the Ministry cover Galon.

That was played on triple J alot.

What a band they were.

Sphinctour DVD is the bees knees cranked up loud.

Key to the greatest cover song ever.

Take a song written and recorded by one of the greatest artists ever.

Then have another of the world's greatest artists ever record it and make it so popular that on the whole most people think it's actually his song.

And you end up with "All Along The Watchtower" by Jimi Hendrix.


That's just how it is.

My favourites tend to be the classic covers that people don't know are covers, like:

All along the watchtower - Hendrix
Heard it through the grapevine - Marvin Gaye
Rockin all over the world - Status Quo
I love rock n roll - Joan Jett
Respect - Aretha Franklin

A couple of newer ones I like are Baker Street - Foo Fighters and 99 Red Balloons - Goldfinger

Not really.

The La De Da's with Kevin Borich recorded the best version of that song by a street.

 

[Oakland Raider]

The La De Da's do the best cover of Dylan's All Along The Watchtower.

Oh, sorb mentioned that one already

My favourite would be War Pigs by Faith No More.

The answer is any song Mike wishes to cover.

Patton makes me hard.

A machine.

Only Maynard has a voice that comes close to matching his range.

Nah really.

Hendrix made the song an all time classic, not the La De Das.
