I am firmly of the opinion that if another band's song is covered, something new and a bit different should be brought to it. With that in mind, here are my Top 5 Fave Cover Tunes du jour....
1. Tenacious D - Keep On Lovin' You
2. Foo Fighters - Have A Cigar
3. Veruca Salt - My Sharona
4. Tori Amos - Smells Like Teen Spirit
5. Cake - I Will Survive
Anyone else?? B)
I just love covers, probly cos i had so many mates in cover bands.
I just downloaded four versions of Whiskey in the Jar. Metallica wins that one.
I'll have to think hard now .... I'll be back ....

Gary Jules - Mad world, tears for fears cover from Donny Darko
The Corrs - Everybody hurts

She brings an amazing quality to it. She told me in an interview (not wanting to drop names but bugger it!) that Kurt used to listen to it while he made spaghetti. Go figure.
Metallica - The Prince
Yeah that song is pretty good seeing as how it was originally a crappy grunge song. :ph34r:Quote:
