Post Reply New Topic

Every now and again bands like to do covers and some of them are pretty darn good.

Know any good ones, maybe they're even better then the original ??

I was always told to listen to Bob Dylan only when he's covered by someone else :

Or you can listen to 'Bob Dylan' covering other people's songs (parodies )

These are just some of my opinions anyway.

:O half of these I didn't even know were covers.. Thank god for google

Super disappointed in myself for never realizing "Run Like Hell" was a cover of Pink Floyd. Guess I never really put two and two together ^_^

There's also "Comfortably Numb" by Scissor Sisters, I actually liked it.

Guns n Roses - Knockin' On Heaven's Door
Van Halen did good covers of You Really Got Me and (Oh) Pretty Woman.

^ I love Lacuna Coil and I love the song Stars, I didn't know it was a cover song. This version of "I Think We're Alone Now" is a pretty good cover, maybe even better than Tiffany's.

Yay more good ones

I'm a bit biased when it comes to The Birthday Massacre tho because I love Chibi's voice.They did a pretty good cover of Never Ending Story too:

"Comfortably Numb" by Scissor Sisters is awesome I like the danciness to it, unfortunately his voice drives me cuckoo tho

Anything sang by Cristina Scabbia is a win in my books, I also didn't realize Stars was a cover.

Yay for Van Halen covers, everyone seems to cover Bob Dylan XD

Not many bands do a good cover of "Rebel Yell" but for me this is as good, if not better then the Billy Idol version.
