Burn in Hell - Dimmu Borgir covering ?

I still can't decide if I like their video clips or not...funny stuff though!

 

[S.P.G.]

stand by me -Pennywise covering ... fuck knows I can remember who wrote that song.. been so many recordings of it

That and land down under. Pennywise did it better.

damn straight.. listening to it now.. such a good song haha

also agree with the grinners cover of dont change, and i actually found an oldschool greenday cover of eye of the tiger the other day?

 

[RCOH]

Stand by me was originally performed by Ben E King & has been covered (terribly IMO) by John Lennon &, as has been said, by Pennywise.

 

[SCHOEY]

Sevendust - Hurt (NIN)
Disturbed - Land of Confusion (Phil Collins or Genesis)
Machine Head - Message in a bottle (Police)
Foo Fighters - Baker Street (Gerry Rafferty?)
Orgy - Blue Monday (New Order?)
Korn - One (Metallica)
Most of the covers Metallica do on garage inc.

Many more may come to mind but can't think of any more at the moment.

Oh, How about Lee Harding - Eye of the tiger or Mary J Blige - One (U2), only kidding.

 

[Binaural]

Two good tracks by Gary Numan covered by other bands:
"Cars" (Fear Factory)
"Down in the park" (Foo Fighters)

 

[konasaurus]

sleep - snowblind
anal cunt - killing yourself to live
dillinger & patton - come to daddy

ahh cant think of anything

 

[Rider]

Any cover done by The Living End is great I think, they started as a covers band and do it really well.

The Power and the Pasion Album which is Midnight Oil songs covered by Australian bands is really good.

And I think Pennywise do a cover of Land Down Under which is really good.

Avril lavigne's cover of SOAD's 'Chop Suey?'

Avril lavigne's cover of SOAD's 'Chop Suey?'

That sort of thing should be made illegal

 

[Mr Sheen]

Rancid's "radio" done by NOFX
The buzzcocks "Ever fallen in love" done by Antiflag

 

[Wattsy]

I was only 19 - The Herd. I'd heard the track before the remake, and enjoy both.

 

[julianwisbey]

Jennifer Warnes: Song Of Bernadette (Leonard Cohen)
Shinehead: Jamaican in New York (Sting: Englishman in New York)
Wierd Al: I Think I'm a Clone Now (Tiffany: I Think We're Alone Now)

 

[Bjern Fita]

My favourite all-time song 'Dead Souls' by Nine Inch Nails (orig. Joy Division)

I love 'I Put a Spell On You' (Credence) and 'Sweet Dreams' (Eurythmics) by Marilyn Manson.

Check out 'Do Ya Think I'm Sexy?' (Rod Stewart) by the Revolting Cocks (Al J from Ministry).

A B-Side cover which I like is Supernaut by 1000 Homo DJ's (I think), Al J and Trent Reznor

 

[Venciferus]

That sort of thing should be made illegal

Avril Lavigne's cover of SOAD's Chop Suey

You are absolutely right, her "version" is the biggest shit barge ever.

Another vote for:
Mad World
The Herd

Just heard that Thunder In My Heart Again song and CANNOT get it out of my head.

Hillies rock on,

Hey i just rememered the version of 'Smells like teen spirit' that Wierd Al Yankovic did ages ago, can't recall his title for it (different lyrics as well to the same tune) but it was almost better than the original!
