Well its one of my favourites so a big two fingers to you

I am the walrus need a better mixjob. The producer managed to leave the drums out and the violin section as well. Oasis know how to perform this song. That other american blablabla sounds like anything else. Wouldn't want to hear it again

Johnny Cash - Hurt (original by 9 Inch Nails)

mehro · 4th May 2008, 02:08

All Along the Watchtower by Hendrix

Didn't we just do this thread last month?

Wibble · 4th May 2008, 02:14

This must be on most people's list.

Hallalujah - Jeff Buckley (Original by Leonard Cohen)

rufus diabolus · 4th May 2008, 02:18

Johnny cash and Jeff Buckley, yes and yes.

Both better than the originals.

Wibble · 4th May 2008, 02:18

Frente - Bizzare Love Triangle (Original by New Order)

A controversial one because many New Order fans think it is sacrilege. Personally I love it because it is so different from the excellent original.

Wibble · 4th May 2008, 02:21

The Fugees - Killing Me Softly (Original by Roberta Flack)

Not a pure cover but WTF. I like it anyway.

Wibble · 4th May 2008, 02:23

This Mortal Coil - Song To The Siren (Original by Tim Buckley who was Jeff's dad).

Orton · 4th May 2008, 02:39

Like to thank you Wibbs

Been a while since I really listened to Hallalujah but right now that brings tears to my eyes - Magnificent version (indeed far better imo than Cohen ) and one of the all time greatest vocals on record

Use to sing that to my boy to sleep when he was a baby and it is forever in my heart

a_devil_inside · 4th May 2008, 11:03

Machine Head - Battery

Cornell · 4th May 2008, 11:09

Chris Cornell - Billie Jean

rufus diabolus · 4th May 2008, 11:59

I like that, never seen it before.

comlag · 4th May 2008, 12:59

John Frusciante covering Radiohead's 'You and Whose Army'. Yeah it really does get that good!

sidsutton · 4th May 2008, 16:31

Going back a few years but this song still sounds great to me. Nazareth covering Joni Mitchell.

Mad World - Gary Jules (Original by Tears For Fears)

Plechazunga · 5th May 2008, 02:09

Heard a great cover of The Clash's Guns of Brixton recently, can't remember who it was though

I hope this helps
