That Should Cover It

[Brynn]

ok the title was a shamless pull from a Spunge album

whats the best cover song you have heard? ok i know it would never be as good as the original, but i mean there are some covers which just shit on the original - like a punk cover of some american classic.

Anyway whats your favourite cover?

 

[Loxleyhood]

White Stripes - Fell in Love with a Girl is a cover isn't it?

 

[Brynn]

[Loxleyhood]

Tell you what though, Fell in Love with a Boy is utter butchery....

 

[Brynn]

[Loxleyhood]

Oooooh, Smooth Criminal - Alien Ant Farm.

 

[swords]

Dropkick Murphy's- Amazing Grace (Live)

 

[Thorwyn]

Smells like Teen Spirit - Tori Amos

 

[swords]

Nirvana > Tori Amos (imo but im right so )

 

[Thorwyn]

Both are good, but this cover is uber.
Oh.. and the deciding advantage of Tori Amos is, that she´s still alive.

 

[Aoami]

bjork - you only live twice (written by Nancy Sinatra?)

 

[Jerelyn]

most of marilyn mansons cover tracks are good.
but, however Scissor Sisters cover version of Pink Floyds Comfortably Numb, is just.. painfull. that's utter blasphemy <cry>

-Jerelyn

 

[harebear]

Slayers Im gonna be your god, is basicly a cover of Iggy Pops famous song (guess which :-O) the lyrics are a bit different but it sounds almost the same

 

[swords]

Both are good, but this cover is uber.
Oh.. and the deciding advantage of Tori Amos is, that she´s still alive.

Nirvana have the added advantage that they are Nirvana which > all

 

[pez]

One - Johnny Cash cover of U2 is nice


oh an nirvana are and over rated over hyped oddity in the big music story, they've seriously aged imo whereas most classics never truly show their age

 

[harebear]

Nirvana were velly good I think, shame most people only heard 1 or 2 of their songs And K Cobain was murdered!! No one can shoot them self in the backa the head with a shotgun!

 

[Arnor]

The Offspring - I wanna be sedated

 

[Sissyfoo]

RATM - Microphone Fiend! \o/

Nirvana are, like, so completely in a different (and better) league to Tori Amos that they are playing a different game! They rawked! I can't even express how fucking good Nirvana were. If even half of the bands around today showed some of the talent and pure angsty goodness that Kurt did then music the music scene would be a fuck of a lot better than it is now.

...but that is just my personal opinion.

 

[Aoami]

Nirvana were boring and pretentious.

 

[Loxleyhood]

They were good. You're just rebelling against everybody saying they were good. Problem is, all the smart people have rebelled against the people rebelling and saying they were crap. You should keep up.

 

[Sissyfoo]

Nirvana were boring and pretentious.

You like Bjork! Your opinion counts for diddly.

 

[sibanac]

RATM - How I Could Just Kill A Man


edit : Nirvana where a bunch of tossers, Pearl Jam, Allice in chains, soundgarden now thats some good grunge

 

[Loxleyhood]

Hrmmm, Soundgarden and Pearl Jam are alright.

 

[Dillinja]

They were good. You're just rebelling against everybody saying they were good. Problem is, all the smart people have rebelled against the people rebelling and saying they were crap. You should keep up.

I don't like Nirvana because I'm not into any of that kind of music. Are people going to rebel against me aswell?

 

[Loxleyhood]

You just don't understand teenagers.

Johnny Rebel: "The Devil Went Down To Jamaica"

Brilliant remake of the old Charles Daniels Band song, i think this song has been covered about 5 times now, Johnny Rebel version is great
