Cover songs

[Cactus Drags]

I was honestly surprised by how much I liked Fall Out Boy's "Love Will Tear Us Apart". Joy Division's version is one of my favourite songs of all time, and I was pleasantly surprised how well FOB did, considering I expected it to be pants.

[Summers]

Will you guys get over yourselves? Wonderwall itself is shit, it has to be one of the msot over rated songs I've ever heard. Oasis are fucking garbage.

←

That's why I love you.

Oh, by the way, brick Jess' window.

[Hobo]

Like:

"Hurt" - Johnny Cash

"If Not For You" - George Harrison

"I See A Darkness" Johnny Cash

"Raspberry Beret" - Warren Zevon

"Knocking On Heavens Door" - Warren Zevon

"Heart of Gold" - Johnny Cash and The Red Hot Chilli Peppers

"Hallelujah" - John Cale

Don't Like:

"American Pie" - Maddonna

"Hallelujah" - when covered by U2, Rufus Wainwright and Jeff Buckley

Any cover Ronan Keating has done.

"Folsom Prison Blues" - Keb' Mo'

"Live and Let Die" and "Knocking On Heavens Door" when covered by Guns 'n' Roses.

Is there a longer clip than I know about of Avril Lavignes chop suey?

Has she released it since the clip I heard?

All I heard was her jokingly sing thirty seconds of it in a tiny gig or something.

I sang in the shower last night, does that qualify me for the worst cover ever? (I was singing Trivium if it matters)

With the Lonesome Hobo, Benji, IIRC he dislikes them 2 covers based on thier popularity, relative to his favourite one, which is the John Cale version.

And as for Ronan Keating, his Tomorrow Never Comes cover is good, but nowhere near as good IMO as Garth Brooks original version.

Personally, I'm in love with Goldfinger's "99 Red Balloons" and I like Gob's "Paint it Black"

What's not good...

Dave Matthews Band's "Stairway to Heaven"

Ick.

[Guest John Kerry's Evil Twin]

Green Day-I Fought The Law(The Clash)

←

[Pepsi Punk]

Green Day-I Fought The Law(The Clash)

←

Actually, that song was originally done by the Bobby Fuller Four in 1966.

←

[Hardcore Weapon Smasher]

Good: Flaming Lips - Mrs. Robinson (Simon and Garfunkel)

Bad: Hilary Duff - My Generation (The Who)

[The Dork Knight]

These are my personal favorite cover songs...

Pearl Jam - Baba O'Riley (They only perform this at concerts)

The Lemonheads - Mrs. Robinson

They Might Be Giants - Savoy Truffle

[CKN]

I might get flamed for this but Imagine - A Perfect Circle. It was so much better then John Lennon's (prepares to get flamed) I just didn't like Lennon's version... I didn't even like the song lyrics until APC sang them.

[Guest bukkake]

Oh, fuck. Adema covered Nutshell? Hopefully Jerry Cantrell didn't endorse it. That's more depressing than hearing about AFI covering NIN.

Like:

Devo - Satisfaction

Marilyn Manson - Sweet Dreams

Placebo - Bigmouth Strikes Again

Placebo - Running Up That Hill

Faith No More - Easy

Mindless Self Indulgence - Bring The Pain

The Pixies - Winterlong

The Smashing Pumpkins - Disarm

Hated:

AFI - Head Like A Hole

Linkin Park - Wish

Staind - Sober

Limp Bizkit - Eulogy

Breaking Benjamin - Aenima

Nirvana - Man Who Sold The World

[Guest fultie]

Eric Clapton's Cocaine is a good one

[Guest The Trooper]

Green Day-I Fought The Law(The Clash)

:kiss:

I'm in exactly the same position as you. I see the signifigance of the Lennon version, but I just don't overly like it. The APC version is better as far as I am concerned, but I'm pretty sure we're in the minority.

[DMN in the House]

Best 1-2 punch?

Hurt by Johnny Cash/NIN or My Way by Frank Sinatra/Sid Vicious

Worst?

Madonna's American Pie

Mash Up I Want to Hear?

Sweet Dreams by Marylin Manson/Eurythmics
