Of all the songs that have been covered by all the bands in the world, Whats everybody's favourite cover version of a song???

Off the top of my head my favourite cover is Goldfingers version of the cure song 'Just Like Heaven'. Both versions are amazing but i think goldfinger have just nailed it perfectly.

[KarmaTsunami]

i love Goldfingers cover of '99 red balloons', but if i'm picking a favourite it has to be Deftones cover of 'no ordinary love'.

I like 'Lovesong' by The Cure redone by Jack Off Jill and you cannae beat Johnny Cash's cover of 'Hurt'. Macks me want to greet sometimes. *sniff*

[KarmaTsunami]

oh christ! can't believe i forgot johnny cash! that version of 'hurt' actually had tears at the back of my eyes. it's just so...beautiful, and melancholic...and...and...ace.

Radioheads cover of Nobody Does It Better. Best cover ever. End of story.

The DK's cover of 'Viva Las Vegas' is excellent. I liked Snake River Conspiracy's take on 'How Soon Is Now' but most people branded it BLASPHEMY

Mock me if you will, but I love Dope's version of "You Spin me Roud (Like a record baby)"

Also, some of the stuff by Me first and the Gimme Gimmes is brilliant.

caffeines version of "you spin me round" is AWESOME!!!!

Chris moyles loved it!!
