    Re: Favourite Cover Songs ?

    Oooo excellent thread. I don't know what it is about cover songs but they are irresistable.

    I'll start with Don't Let It Bring You Down by Annie Lennox

    and Hurt by Johnny Cash

    Probably my favourite two!

    Neon Trees singing Justin Bieber's "Baby". Shows Bieber for what he really is, talentless.

    or Foo Fighters doing "Band on the Run"

    All Along the Watchtower, but then I find most of Dylan's songs are better when they're sung by someone else...

    Re: Favourite Cover Songs ?

    I love some of the cover versions that Muse have done, like this:
    Feeling good
    House of the rising sun

    Cake did a good cover of I will survive, there a lot more I like but these were the first three that came to mind when I saw this thread. I might add more later.

    for all intents it seems to be the same card minus some gays name on it and a shielded cover ? with OEM added to it - GoNz0.

    Re: Favourite Cover Songs ?

    Even if you've not heard the original (of which there multiple 'originals' ) its an awesome cover.

    Edit: FWIW the Live Lounge albums are actually really good IMO.

    Another Hendrix cover.

    *goes back to what he should be doing - answering "Is the legislative branch of government in the U.K. of declining significance? Does it matter if it is?” *
