threetonesun Posted July 29, 2003 Share Posted July 29, 2003 Improved: Limp Bizkit - FaithOriginal: Unknown The original was George Michael So many punk bands do these, and back in the day everyone covered everyone else's songs. I guess my favorites would be: Improved: Jimi Hendrix - Hound Dog Origina:l Elvis Improved: Catch 22 - Sloop John B. Original: The Beach Boys Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also like the disturbed cover of "shout"(I forget by who) titled "shout 2000" The Disturbed cover is a remake of .... Believe it or not.... Tears for Fears I like the Ataris remake of Boys of Summer, originally by Don Henley, simply b/c it is a faster version of it.... Echo and the Bunneymen did a great remake of People are Strange back in 88(?) for the Lost boys Soundtrack, orginally done by the doors....
