The NZA Posted January 27, 2006 Author Posted January 27, 2006 goddamn doors-haters. Did i say Baker Street? or The Man Who Sold the World? Those're good.
Senshik Posted August 16, 2006 Posted August 16, 2006 And how about that cover of Stand by me? Pennywise totally rocked that joint. Yes! Totally rocked. FUCKING STAND BY ME! here's some more. what i like about you --suicide machines i'm not sure of the artists of these songs.. but they're pretty cool. mrs. robinson hotel california I could have sworn Pennywise made that Mrs. Robinson cover... Either way it's a cool one Also by Pennywise and done well - Kids in America I have a Reel Big Fish cover song of Hotel California - IT's amazing! Okay just cuz it's ska. Others: I want you to love me covered by Letters to cleo (from 10 things I hate about you flick) Pressure drop covered by the Specials Boys of SUmmer done by The Ataris Monster Mash by The Misfits
Reverend Jax Posted August 16, 2006 Posted August 16, 2006 I can neither confirm nor deny that Pennywise did a cover of Mrs Robinson, but I can confirmt hat the most popular cover of Mrs Robinson in teh 90's was by the Lemonheads. The Lemonheads were too happy for the age of Nirvana, btu they rocked noththeless.
Ganny McVagflaps Posted August 17, 2006 Posted August 17, 2006 Evan Dando did less heroin than Kurt Cobain Kurt Cobain did less crack than Evan Dando More crack plus less heroin = poppier tunes, but less popularity in the early-mid '90s.
Senshik Posted August 18, 2006 Posted August 18, 2006 More... Metro covered by System of a Down. Originally done by Berlin. I loved the original as well so when system of a down remade it i was skeptical at first... after hearing it I thought the new sound was great. Down Load both if you like 80s and rock. Blue Monday remade by Orgy. Awesome remake, t'was well done.
Senshik Posted August 18, 2006 Posted August 18, 2006 O O Oooo and Fuck the Police covered by Rage against the machine! Fucking loved these guys... I was so sad when they broke up. Come to think about it, I never fully recovered. OH OH OHHHH And The Zelda Theme song COVERED BY SYSTEM OF A DOWN! This shit is the tities and the cocks and the balls put togther.
Reverend Jax Posted August 18, 2006 Posted August 18, 2006 Evan Dando was too busy bing in love with the fact that he was acting like he hating being a rock star idol to start a heroin habit. Two SOAD cover superior to Metro: Swonblind (originally my Black Sabbath) and Shame (on a Nigga) (originally by Wu-Tang Clan). I don't remember hearing Nick's opinion on their cover of Shame, but I doubt he likes it better than the original. The Zelda song frequently circulated on the Internet that is attributed to SOAD is in fact not SOAD's work. It is by a band called The Rabbit Joint. It's not hard to see why it's misattributed to SOAD, but it's not them. Ahh..Fuck the Police by Rage...the memories....
The NZA Posted August 19, 2006 Author Posted August 19, 2006 damn fine call...they did the beginnings of a great stairway to heaven live one time too, junker showed me, but they fucked around towards the middle and acted like they forgot the lyrics. as for hip hop: Snoop Dogg - Lodi Dodi (from Slick Rick) Mos Def - Children's story (also Rick the Ruler's)

They sound just like SOAD. Hah yah, memories from the high school days for me.
the division of joy Posted August 19, 2006 Posted August 19, 2006 foo fighters - requiem on a spin off of this topic, i do think the worst cover song would have to be boyzones rendition of fast car, by tracy chapman... butchery at its finest
Jont Posted August 19, 2006 Posted August 19, 2006 foo fighters - requiemon a spin off of this topic, i do think the worst cover song would have to be boyzones rendition of fast car, by tracy chapman... butchery at its finest I was going to contest that they must have done worse cover songs than that, but I realised doing that would unlock to many memories that are supposed to stay hidden. The Slits did an amazing cover of Heard it Through the grapevine, I may have posted it on this thread already, but now you can hear it on Myspace, just listen to it. http://www.myspace.com/theslitz
the division of joy Posted December 27, 2006 Posted December 27, 2006 Not sure if its been mentioned, but Drix's version of Watchtower... depeche mode - john the revelator is another that comes to mind foo's - down in the park... lucy in the sky with diamonds - aimee mann i'm only sleeping - the vines don't let me down - stereophonics actually, most of the i am sam soundtrack
alive she cried Posted December 27, 2006 Posted December 27, 2006 doj is right. Hendrix's version of all along the watchtower is without a doubt the best cover ever.

La Lindsay Posted December 27, 2006 Posted December 27, 2006 paul anka does a good remake of wonderwall here.
JunkerSeed Posted December 29, 2006 Posted December 29, 2006 The cardigans do a fantastic cover of "Iron Man" by sabbath. I swear!
Reverend Jax Posted December 29, 2006 Posted December 29, 2006 paul anka does a good remake of wonderwall here. On youtube, Paul Anka has only one friend, and if I'm not mistaken, "Tom" is your automatic friend for being on myspace. Well I saw Neil Young's myspace page I recall it having like 80,000 friends. The cardigans do a fantastic cover of "Iron Man" by sabbath. I swear! Why must you lie so? Foo Fighters - Have a cigar Foo Fighters - Darling Nikki
