The search button is not my friend, its a bag of spanners...
Was listening to some tunes today on my ipod, and it occurred to me that I'm a real fan of interesting cover versions of songs. There was a thread recently about Rocky Horror being remade and pretty much everyone said the remake couldn't be better than the original....
I think my favourite, and this might be sacrilege to some, is Johnny Cash's version of One by U2 :shock:
Some other fantastic (imo) covers are:
Stone Cold Crazy (Queen) by Metallica
House of the Rising Sun (The Animals) by Idris Muhammad
Stairway to Heaven (Led Zeppelin) by Dread Zeppelin
So I was wondering if anyone prefers some cover versions to the originals?

a reggea version excursion of:
Dark side of the moon
"Dub side of the moon"
by the Easy All-Stars
Pink Floyd themselves did a cod reggae version of "Money" (Guy Pratt on bass) on "Delicate Sound of Thunder". It took a bit of getting used to but I rather like it now
I'd have found it a slap in the face with a wet fish... bet the icelandic and french trawler fleet weren't best pleased?

They grouper'ed around to buy tickets, but couldn't grasp the scale of what they were about to sea. They thought they were going to see a Keith Floyd cookout.

Jimi Hendrix's version of All Along The Watchtower (Bob Dylan)
Placebo's version of Running Up That Hill (Kate Bush)and oddly, I really like their version of Daddy Cool
Type O Negative's version of Cinnamon Girl (Neil Young)
Motorhead's version of Louie Louie - think this was originally The Kingsmen, it's featured in Animal House (the frat house sing along song)
Korn's version of Another Brick In The Wall (Pink Floyd) which is just brilliant
Alien Ant Farm's version of Smooth Criminal, which just makes me giggle!

Nirvana's cover of "The Man Who Sold The World" (David Bowie)
Johnny Cash's Cover of "Hurt" (NIN)
The Video for this always makes me sad as it kind of acted as Johnny's Epitaph. He knew he was soon to die when he shot it. It featured Johnny and his wife. He died within the year and his wifes death predated his by four months.
Jeff Buckley's cover of "Hallelujah" (Leonard Cohen)
