Here are some of my favorites.

Johnny Cash covering Hurt by NIN is pretty cool

Had that on my list for a while ... but there are so many good ones to choose from.

Johnny Cash covering Hurt by NIN is pretty cool
A great song.

I would also add 99 Red Balloons by Goldfinger. For an English cover, it does justice to the original and gets the point of the song.

Johnny Cash - One (U2) or Rusty Cage (Soundgarden)

Jimi Hendrix - All Along the Watchtower (Bob Dylan)

The Black Keys - Have Love Will Travel (The Sonics)

Paperboys do a good Watchtower too.

i always liked nirvanas version of either lake of fire by the meat puppets, or where did you sleep last night by huddie "ledbelly" ledbetter. great songs made even better by nirvana.

Agreed.


Me first and the gimme gimmes covering anything. Especially at little jonnys bar mitzvah. (sp? all round)

YAY! Me first

Agreed.

Do they have any songs that don't sound like Me First and the Gimme Gimmes covering a pop song.

I have a friend who loves them, and when he plays them, I can't tell when one song ends and one song begins.

Thomas Dolby did a great cover of "I Scare Myself."

1 - wow, i didnt realise johnny cash covered that song, thats awesome.

2 - ha, im not the only one who likes the black keys.

1- it is a delightful rendition

2- we are a select and infinitely wiser few.

The Vines - Ms Jackson (outkast)
Sinead O'Connor - All Apologies(Nirvava)

1- it is a delightful rendition

2- we are a select and infinitely wiser few.

1 - i will check it out

2 - damn straight. wait... werent you just in the v.u. thread too? your awesome

1 - i will check it out

2 - damn straight. wait... werent you just in the v.u. thread too? your awesome

1- Do so

2- Yes I was, yes I am, so are you.

Jimi Hendrix - All along the watch tower

oh, and bob dylans version of house of the rising sun as well. damn fine job for him

EDIT:
and janis joplins version of st. james infirmary

Iron and Wine - Smokestack Lightning and Such Great Heights

Nirvana - Man Who Sold the World

John Cale - Hallelujah

I've got more, but I will wait.

Johnny Cash covering Hurt by NIN is pretty cool
Yep

Nelly's latest is awesome- :rolleyes:

Me first and the gimme gimmes covering anything.

Damn straight! I especially like their cover of "One Tin Soldier". (Not on MFATGG Ruin Johnny's Barmtzvah, but it kicks ass!)

John Cale - Hallelujah

yeah, another great one. although i perfer the "Hallelujah/I Know it's over (Medley)" by jeff buckley. that one is good.

I quite like Rufio's version of "Like a Prayer" by Maddona

How about the Doors - Light my Fire. I have nooo idea who did the original.

Hendrix's All along the watchtower is great, as is Elton John's LSD. *shifty*

How about the Doors - Light my Fire. I have nooo idea who did the original.

they are the original writers, as far as i know.

Smashing Pumpkins covering "Landslides".

they are the original writers, as far as i know.
But I swear on Rage, late late late one night I saw a 50s band performing the song. I swear i was real!!!

But I swear on Rage, late late late one night I saw a 50s band performing the song. I swear i was real!!!

really? as far as i know, ray manzarek wrote the first verse and morrison wrote the rest. who knows, maybe they did cover it. i'd hope not, they are one of my favorite bands, and i had no idea about that at all.

But I swear on Rage, late late late one night I saw a 50s band performing the song. I swear i was real!!!
I'm pretty sure as well that it is original from The Doors.

Well my research has been fruitless. Maybe I dreamed the whole thing...

Or maybe it was a more recent cover, made to look like some old 50's thing. Damned technology!!! They fooled me.

*goes to sulk in corner*

*goes to sulk in corner*
Don't sulk everyone is wong from time to time, even me! ;)

The Vines - Ms Jackson (outkast)
Sinead O'Connor - All Apologies(Nirvava)

What about Sinead's cover of Nothing Compares to You by Prince?

Jimi Hendrix - All Along the Watchtower (Bob Dylan)

First one that popped into my head. :)

Don't sulk everyone is wong from time to time, even me!

Well if you're wrong sometimes, it must be ok. :p
*crawls out from corner*

But I swear on Rage, late late late one night I saw a 50s band performing the song. I swear i was real!!!

*has the album here*

Light My Fire is theirs. Alabama Song (Whiskey Bar) and Back Door Man are the only two covers on the album. :)

i always liked nirvanas version of either lake of fire by the meat puppets, or where did you sleep last night by huddie "ledbelly" ledbetter. great songs made even better by nirvana.

Yep, their version of Where Did You Sleep Last Night was great, despite a minor vocal stumbling.

shinedown, simple man (acoustic(sp?))

But I swear on Rage, late late late one night I saw a 50s band performing the song. I swear i was real!!!

Light my fire was absolutely definitely written by the doors. However it has been covered by Jose Feliciano which might look and sound like the 50s cos he was an old spanish geezer doing it in a flamenco-crooning stylee

From the list provided in the poll, I picked Concrete Blonde, mostly because they're the best from the group on the list. However, there are others I shall mention:

The Dead Kennedys: "Viva Las Vegas" (Elvis Presley), "I Fought the Law" (Bobby Fuller), "Take This Job and Shove It" (Johnny Paycheck) (though I never heard the original in it's entirety.)

Metallica: "Turn the Page" (Bob Seger), "Die, Die My Darling (The Misfits)

Tori Amos: "Bonnie and Clyde '97 (Eminem), "Thank You" (Led Zeppelin), "Real Men" (Joe Jackson)

Tiamat: "Sympathy For the Devil" (the Rolling Stones)

Nirvana: "Mollys Lips" (the Vaselines). Other covers by Nirvana have been mentioned, I will refrain from mentioning them again.

Pansy Division: "Flower" (Liz Phair), "Real Men" (Joe Jackson)

Sid Vicious - My Way

Jimi Hendrix - All Along The Watchtower

Johnny Cash - Hurt

The remix of 'Singing In The Rain' on the German car ad.

Areosmith, Come Together by the Beatles
NIckleback and Kid Rock, Saturday by Elton John

Areosmith, Come Together by the Beatles


A good one,
Now for an old one

Mathews Southern Comfort's cover of Joni Mitchel's Woodstock

All Along The Watchtower- Hendrix. (Dylan).
Last Caress/Green Hell - Metallica (The Misfits)
Diamonds and Rust- Judas Priest (Joan Baez)
Blue Suede Shoes -Elvis Presley (Carl Perkins)
When The Levee Breaks- Led Zeppelin (Robert Johnson?)

John Cale - Hallelujah

Have you had the good luck to see him doing his solo live cover of Heartbreak Hotel on the piano? 'Disturbing' doesn't come close to describing it.

Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds - William Shatner.

Babes in toyland's version of "all by myself" is cool (basically turn it into a bunch of screaming and playin guitar VERY noisily
Schneider TMs version of "there is a light that never goes out" by the smiths is ace too - very pretty with a sad robot voice...

Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds - William Shatner.

cool he he. although its never clear whether he is a misunderstood genius or just very very disturbed :p

Damn, I forgot that one.

Queensryche, "Scarboro Fair". Saw it in some anime thing.

Did you know that Dylan "gave" All Along the Watchtower to Hendrix because he was so blown away by the cover?

I also would have accepted as an answer:

Cowboy Junkies' "Sweet Jane."

Hendrix - All Along the Watchtower
Johnny Cash - Hurt
Jeff Buckley - Hallelujah
Nirvana - Where did you sleep last night?

Did you know that Dylan "gave" All Along the Watchtower to Hendrix because he was so blown away by the cover?

Yeah, back when there was a greater sense of camaraderie and respect for each-others art between musicians. :(

Silverchair covering London's Burning is cool too

A great song.

I would also add 99 Red Balloons by Goldfinger. For an English cover, it does justice to the original and gets the point of the song.

99 Red Balloons by Happy 2B Hardcore.
Feelings by Offspring.

Silverchair covering London's Burning is cool too

Hmm, I can kinda picture them doing it in a similar style to "Spawn Again" :)

Yeah, back when there was a greater sense of camaraderie and respect for each-others art between musicians. :(

Greater sense of camraderie? Dylan has so damn many songs, one year he gave them out instead of Christmas cards. It's like the Monopoly millionaire giving away pennies!

Just kidding. The gift was a supremely classy gesture.

cool he he. although its never clear whether he is a misunderstood genius or just very very disturbed :p

Wait, are you talking bout the Shat? Genius, of course.

Cradle of Filth's cover of Iron Maiden's Hallowed Be Thy Name :cool:

Haha :)

Jimi Hendrix - All Along the Watchtower is brilliant

99 Red Balloons by Happy 2B Hardcore.

Yay for happy hardcore!
Quite simply the greatest cover i have (which you just erminded me of) is a Happy Hardcore version of Gangsta's Paradise. What makes it so great is that unlike most HH versions of songs it's not a remix of the original, ratehr some strange guy (think he's Indian) trying and failng hilariously to do the rap. When i'm not rushing to a lecture i'll put on some of the mistaken lyrics :)

My favorite cover is The Swans covering Joy Division's "Love Will Tear Us Apart".

Hmm, I can kinda picture them doing it in a similar style to "Spawn Again" :)
More "lie to me" style :fluffle:

More "lie to me" style :fluffle:

Oh? *downloads* :p

Costello's version of Nick Lowe's "Peace, Love, and Understanding." It turns a completely ironic song into a battle cry.

Bruce Hornsby's cover of Elton John's
Madman Across the Water

Nick Cave and company's cover of Dylan's "Death Is not the End."

My favorite cover is The Swans covering Joy Division's "Love Will Tear Us Apart".
http://www.thelivingjarboe.com/audio/VariousFailures/lovetear.rm
Yay for preview links.

System Of A Down's version of "The Metro" Originally done by Berlin
S.O.A.D.'s version of "Snowblind"
The Clash's version of "I fought the law(and the law won)"
"Hallelujah" By Rufus Wainwright.
Aerosmith's "Come Together"
Foo Fighter's version of "Darling Nikki"

The Clash's version of "I fought the law(and the law won)"

Good, but the Dead Kennedys version is better still :D

I voted for "Ree Ree" because her cover version of "Respect" is considered the definitive version by many people who don't even know Otis Redding orginally recorded the song. Even my father, who loves "Ree Ree" to pieces didn't know Otis Redding originally recorded it.

I would give honourable mention to Stevie Nicks's cover of the Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers song "I Need To Know" in her live shows. She injects that song with a LOT of fire and emotion and basically turned a "blah" song for me into one of my favourites. In fact, if I ever did a concert, that's the song I would open with, and it's because of Nicks's version. Even my ex-roommate (who had no reason to be biased either way) said she did it about 10 times better than Petty did.

Aerosmith's "Come Together"
Excellent

Mack the Knife--Bobby Darin

Good, but the Dead Kennedys version is better still :D
And Green Day's just sounds the same.

Brian Setzer - Mack the knife

Goldfinger - 99 Red Balloons, Placebo - Daddy Cool, Thyrfing - Over the Hills and Far Away, and a cover version of Walk This Way that I heard in a club last friday. No idea whose it was but it was fantastic.

Oh oh, and the White Stripes - Jolene

Every A Perfcect Circle cover.
Live- I will the Line
Live-Supernatural
Garbage- Supernatural
Smashing Pumpkins- Landslide
Pearl Jam- Sittin on the Dock of the Bay
Rasputina- Wish You Were Here
Cold- Space Oddity
Buzz Poets- Mexican Radio
Sarah McLachlan- Dear God

Baker Street covered by the Foo Fighters

Every A Perfcect Circle cover.
Their cover of "The Nurse Who Loved Me" is so awesome!

"Say hello to the rug's topography
It holds quite a lot of interest with your face down on it
Say hello to the shrinking in your head
You can't see it but you know its there
so
don't
neglect
it..."

Tough one, lots of good cover songs out there. I'm going to go with Janis Joplins version of "Summertime" by Gershwin

OMG! How did I forget.

Social Distortion's Ring of Fire!

It's already been said, but anything by Me First & the Gimme Gimmes, especially Rocket Man, Uptown Girl, Stand By Your Man, Strawberry Fields Forever (now, here's a song by the most overrated band of all time), Nothing Compare 2 U, and The Times They Are A-Changin'.
Also, The Vandals covers of So Long, Farewell (from the Sound of Music) and Don't Stop Me Now (Queen).

Johnny Cash's impressions of Hurt, Personal Jesus and I hung my Head.

Mardi Gras.bb covering Kung Fu Fighting, The Munsters Theme and the Baby Elephant Walk.

Oh oh oh, and Reel Big Fish - Monkey Man

Johnny Cash's impressions of Hurt, Personal Jesus and I hung my Head.


Who sang I hung my head first?

(Those three are fantastic, I love The Man Comes Around)

jamie Cullum - Frontin' (you know, that one...)

Travis - Hit me baby one more time (Britney Spears)

Roxy music - jealous guy (john Lennon)

Black magic woman - Santana (fleetwood mac)

Cat's in the cradle - ugly kid joe (don't know)

and the classic american pie, murdered shamelessly by madge

Der Kommissar by After The Fire

Its the english version of a Falco song and the ONLY one I like better than the original.

I want to strangle everyone who has translated 99 Luftbaloons. They do such crappy jobs it makes me cry.

Sid Vicious - My Way

Jimi Hendrix - All Along The Watchtower

Johnny Cash - Hurt

Great minds think alike!

I always liked the DKs covers of Elvis' "Viva Las Vegas" And David Allen Coe's "Take This Job And Shove It".

The Gypsy Kings also do an awesome cover of "Comme d'habitude" (covered in English by several artists, most famously Frank Sinatra - yep that's the original "My Way" - http://www.chartattack.com/damn/2004/04/0108.cfm).

But of all the great covers, Shang Shang Typhoon's cover of "Let it Be" is probably my all time favorite.

Rob Zombie - Blitzkrieg Bop (Ramones)
Dropkick Murphys - The Rocky Road To Dublin (traditional)
Joe Strummer & The Mescaleros - Redemption Song (Bob Marley)
Molotov - Chavas ("Girls" from Beastie Boys)

Smashing Pumpkins- LandslideNOT!

That was a wretched cover. EVERY cover of that song is wretched.

Damn! There are sooo many!! I don't know where to begin!!

Mike Ness' (Social Distortion) 'I Fought the Law' originally by Bobby Fuller
Rufus Wainright 'Across the Universe' originally by the Beatles
The Righteous Brothers 'Unchained Melody' originally by Les Baxter
Sublime's 'Rivers of Babylon' originally by the Melodians
Sublime's 'Scarlet Begonias' originally by the Grateful Dead

Not to mention almost anything by MFATGG, just because they can make anything fun to listen to again!

I could post thousands, but damn...

Dropkick Murphys - The Rocky Road To Dublin (traditional)


Oh yeah!

They do some sweet covers of trad songs. Have you heard their version of "Amazing Grace"? It seriously kicks ass.

The Pogues do some good trad songs as well. Especially Eric Bogles "And the Band Played Waltzing Matilda".

Flogging Molly too! They friggen rule!

the shire horses - now i know where i'm going our kid (seahorses)

Johnny Cash's cover of Hurt has to be far and away the best cover ever. He took a song that, quite frankly, sounded like it was written by a pathetic whinging 20-something yr-old complaining about how ppl don't like him (well, d'uh, it's because you whine all the time) and turned it into a song of a broken lonely old man looking back at his life and realising everyone he knows has died.
Superb.
Another great one is Gin & Juice, a Snoop Dogg song covered by Ween. They turned it into a sort of rockabilly version. And it sounds great. I don't know if it's been released anywhere, but you can get it on Shareaza.

Oh yeah!

Also The Fields of Athenry is sweet

The Pogues do some good trad songs as well. Especially Eric Bogles "And the Band Played Waltzing Matilda".

Well it is fairly standard for any Irish Band to do that.

But the Pogues just kick ass though.

Smashing Pumpkins - Landslide (Stevie Nicks)
Nöise Machine - Pokemon Theme

Jimi Hendrix - All Along the Watchtower (Bob Dylan)
Definitely, I can't believe this didn't make the poll.

Oh oh oh, and Reel Big Fish - Monkey Man

The Specials - Monkey Man almost made the poll ...

As for Jimi's All Along the Watchtower, I already had 2 covers OF Jimi songs on the poll ... plus this would've won hands down had it been an option.

My favorite cover song is Freddie Mercury's version of "The Great Pretender." I don't know who sang the original version.

Amazing!! So many of my favourites haven't been mentioned yet.

Counting Crows - Friend of the Devil (Grateful Dead)
Hidden In Plain View - Mr. Jones (Counting Crows)
Headstones - Tweeter And The Monkey Man (Traveling Wilburys)
Metallica - Astronomy (Blue Oyster Cult)
Aerosmith - Shame, Shame, Shame (Buddy Guy? Smiley Lewis? who knows??)
Weak At Best - Karma Chameleon (Boy George)

I Walk The Line, Where Did You Sleep Last Night?, All Along The Watchtower are all up there too. Covers kick ass.

My favorite cover song is Freddie Mercury's version of "The Great Pretender." I don't know who sang the original version.
The Platters, and I love that!

I Walk the Line? Live covered that right? I REALLY like their version.

And I forgot to mention Kula Shaker's version of "Hush" by Deep Purple

Yes, thanks.

I'm not surprised that the overwhelming majority of people voted for 'other'. There are way too many choices out there and everyone listens different stuff. I like Disturbed's version of Shout (which they redid as Shout 2000), originally by Tears for Fears.

Common People by William Shatner, originally done by the band Pulp. I don't care if its William Shatner, its one of the best covers I've ever heard. And the fact that I am a bit of a Trekie has nothing to do with it. Ahem..

Here's a sample. This is not illegal to post, cause its only like a 1/4 of the song. Enjoy! :D uh, well, this upload files thing is messed up, not working, invalid file type, can't take zip, jpg, gif, mp3 or wma, like only the most popular kind of files to upload. Whats up with that? Anyway, just go download the song "legally" (wink wink). Get the one by Pulp and then William Shatner. You'll see why I love it so much.

Flogging Molly too! They friggen rule!
Yes they do.

From the list provided in the poll, I picked Concrete Blonde, mostly because they're the best from the group on the list. However, there are others I shall mention:

The Dead Kennedys: "Viva Las Vegas" (Elvis Presley), "I Fought the Law" (Bobby Fuller), "Take This Job and Shove It" (Johnny Paycheck) (though I never heard the original in it's entirety.)

Metallica: "Turn the Page" (Bob Seger), "Die, Die My Darling (The Misfits)

Tori Amos: "Bonnie and Clyde '97 (Eminem), "Thank You" (Led Zeppelin), "Real Men" (Joe Jackson)

Tiamat: "Sympathy For the Devil" (the Rolling Stones)

Nirvana: "Mollys Lips" (the Vaselines). Other covers by Nirvana have been mentioned, I will refrain from mentioning them again.

Pansy Division: "Flower" (Liz Phair), "Real Men" (Joe Jackson)
EXCELLENT list! And I menan good! And Jello Biafra kicks ass. You're location thing says Pittsburgh, are you an Anti-Flag fan?

jello biafra said tiamats version of sympathy for the devil. that kicks ass beyond ass.

I've always been a big fan of Stone Temple Pilots' cover of "Dancing Days" by Led Zeppelin, but that's probably due in no small part to my overwhelming everything-possibly-related-to-Led-Zeppelin bias.

I've always been a big fan of Stone Temple Pilots' cover of "Dancing Days" by Led Zeppelin, but that's probably due in no small part to my overwhelming everything-possibly-related-to-Led-Zeppelin bias.
but its also a great song.

Thomas Dolby did a great cover of "I Scare Myself."

Indeed he did.

I also have a pretty bitchin' cover of Psycho Killer by Moxy Fruvous.

Anything by Richard Cheese.

Nothing like a lounge jazz version of NIN's Closer, or Down with the Sickness (as featured on Dawn of the Dead)


Also, the G3 2004 version of Rockin' in the Freeworld, and Little Wing by Vai, Satriani, and Yngwie is pretty damn cool.

On that track, Nirvana's cover of Heartbreaker is pretty damn cool too.

Nightwish - Over the Hills and Far Away
Judas Priest - Johnny B. Goode
Guns & Roses - Sympathy for the Devil
Guns & Roses - Live and Let Die
Megadeth - Anarchy in the UK
Helloween - Space Oddity
Helloween - Hocus Pocus
Helloween - From Out of Nowhere

Black Betty - Spiderbait (Ram Jam)
Down With The Sickness - Lounge Against The Machine

Great Big Sea's cover of End Of The World As We Know It by R.E.M.

I haven't heard The Selecter's I Can See Clearly Now. I love Ska and I like finding cover versions so I'll have to hunt that one out.

My current favourite cover is probably not everyone's cup of tea, but it's Nina Gordon from the Veruca Salts singing an acoustic version of NWA's Straight Outta Compton. Also there's a bluegrass version of Iggy Pop's Lust for Life by Bad Livers that is pretty cool.

Straight Outta Compton - Nina Gordon (http://www.ninagordon.com/audio/straightouttacompton.mp3). PARENTAL ADVISORY WARNING - lots of bad words beautifully sung.

Lust for Life - Bad Livers (http://soiuser.hyperchat.com/fimbrethil/lust.mp3).

Der Kommissar by After The Fire

Its the english version of a Falco song and the ONLY one I like better than the original.

I want to strangle everyone who has translated 99 Luftbaloons. They do such crappy jobs it makes me cry.

I remember that... They supported Duran Duran in the mid-80's and the single got some airplay and it's stuck in my head every since.

Have to say, this is one of my favourite NS threads! Everyone give it 5 stars!

Ooh, I like SOAD's cover of Metro by Berlin.

*hides in shame*

Any cover by Richard Cheese, especially his cover of "Down With The Sickness" by Disturbed. Man that one cracks me up.

*streaks through this thread* WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

Also, the G3 2004 version of Rockin' in the Freeworld, and Little Wing by Vai, Satriani, and Yngwie is pretty damn cool.
:eek:
Those were both awesome tracks!
