[Silvorgold]

so whats everyone's favourite cover songs?

i enjoyed Crosby Stills Nash and Young's cover of Woodstock (song was originally done by Joni Mitchell)

Lenny Kravitz's cover of the Guess Who's American Woman

Big Sugar - Let it Ride (cover of the Bachman turner overdrive song)

The Guess Who - Light my fire (a very rare cover of the doors hit)

BTO - House of the Rising Sun (a kinda new cover of the 60s hit by i forget who :s)

[sanctified Veteran]

cradle of filth - sleepless (the original song is from a band named Anatema)

tool - comfortably numb (I dont need to present the original maker of the song :roll: )

a perfect circle - perfect enemy (vacant) (song from a demo by the tapeworm project)

[Geronimo]

NOFX - Gin and Juice (cover)

punk covers - california dreaming

pennywise - I Come From A Land Down Under

It is not japanese. I dont know who it is. I just grabbed a whole list while searching for punk cover. sounds like pennywise or maybe me first and the gimme gimmes

/edit but the gin and juice cover is the best i have heard.

[BlackCloud]

i think pennywise and me first and the gimme gimmes both cover california dreaming..

yeh tbh the only two Hi-Standard songs I know are the ones on that album eheh

oh and thx yeh I couldnt think of many 'appropriate' Misfits lyrics for a sig... :D

do u like Samhain?

[devHead]

U2's cover back in the early 90's of the Righteous Brothers' "Everlasting Love". That has got to be one of the best covers of that song.

I still like Power Stations' cover of T-Rex's "Bang A Gong"

[twist]

nah not a big danzig fan, i like old misfits though. i'm into softer emo junk in my old age

i want your skull, i need your skull. i really need it

[baphomet_irl Veteran]

oh ok eheh

I do like ALL Danzig (Misifits, Samhain, Danzig) :)

and I dont like the new 'Misfits' either (obviously ;))

yeh that's some song eheh

'Gotta have u on my wall, gotta have u on my wall....'

lol

I know I shouldnt really do this, but w00t! 1000 posts at last :D - its been a long time comin eheh

[twist]

thx :D

u can get the box set on Amazon I think - definitely on eBay - I have it (and the Samhain box set) - the CD covers r cool - theyre opaque black - and u get a Fiend Club Badge and a cool lyric booklet with it.

Yeh I got pretty much every Danzig-written song - and the classical album 'Black Aria'

Yeh the new Misfits are crappy methinks...

[baphomet_irl Veteran]

oh and some good cover versions:

Ian Brown - Billie Jean

Big Black - The Model

Tom Jones & James Dean Bradfield - I'm Left, You're Right, She's Gone (based on Elvis version)

[Silvorgold]

since someone mentioned U2 n i forgot all bout u2, i liked their cover of neil young's southern man...it was interesting but too much talking n their cover of steppenwolf's born to be wild

[LuZZo]

Well two TOOL covers:

"No Quarter" by Led Zeppelin

"You Lied" by Peach gb

[amoeba]

Save Ferris - Come on Eileen

[DrunkenMaster]

Stevie Ray Vaughn - Voodoo Child [preferably the one played at Carnegie hall - 13 minutes long!!!).

I guarantee if you are a Hendrix fan you will love this song. BTW if you watched Black Hawk Down - just as they're getting into the chopper near the start of the movie they're playing this very version of the song.
