Ross Posted September 15, 2004 Report Share Posted September 15, 2004 The Beatles cover of Twist n Shout is pretty good.Michael Jackson's cover of Come Together too.Pearl Jam covering Masters Of War is also great.Eileen Rafferty covering Frankie Miller's Caledonia is good.Tori Amos' covers of almost anything are special as are the Johnny Cash covers (including Rusty Cage) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Inkster Posted September 15, 2004 Report Share Posted September 15, 2004 Me First and the gimme gimme's, Reel Big Fish, NFG or generally any punk covers are rather good in my opinion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nullmouse Posted September 15, 2004 Report Share Posted September 15, 2004 Gin and Juice, as covered by The Gourds.All other suggestions are redundant in the face of such a magnificent genre-defying cover. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Da Fat Porn Star Posted September 15, 2004 Report Share Posted September 15, 2004 I think you have to say Hurt - johnny Cash is awesome!But I have to love Runaway - Blood for Blood at the mo' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Larsen B Posted September 15, 2004 Report Share Posted September 15, 2004 I must say that Jonny Cash's cover of Hurt is awesome as is his cover version of Personal Jesus and as is Marilyn Manson's cover of that, although it is a tad predictable sounding. My other favourites are probably Manics cover of Train In Vain and Pumpkins cover of Boys Don't Cry as well as William Shatner's cover of Common People.

bryn Posted September 15, 2004 Report Share Posted September 15, 2004 I'll go with All Along the Watchtower. Hendrix made that song, Dylan's version sucks lol.Another good cover was the one that came out not long ago for the film Donnie Darko. Can't remember details but it was a tears for fears original.Deep purple did an ace cover of an Elvis song which I've also forgotten the name of.

Guest Scorge Spike Posted September 15, 2004 Report Share Posted September 15, 2004 The Ataris' cover of 'boys of summer' That song was a massacre.My favorite is probably 'Word Up' by Gun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
