Yes, Metallica's Tuesday's Gone is a great tune. Great to jam to as well.

Type O Negative's cover of Seals & Crofts Summer Breeze is also a great song.

And that performance Elton John and Axl Rose did of Bohemian Rhapsody was also stellar.

Oh yeah, and Collide's version of Jefferson Airplanes's "White Rabbit". Gave it new life on the goth club dance floor.

this one is actually by an all star line up of the nobodys, the queers, and one other artist's name that doesn't seem to come to mind right now.

if you didn&#39;t notice from the different vocal changes <_<

Name your files correctly kids
