Best Cover Versions
emopants:
During halftime, I made sure to ask my fellow superbowlers "why is sir paul covering GNR?" Just for the look of horror on their faces.
GG Crono 4:
Sonata Arctica's version of I Want Out and Luca Turilli's version of I'm Alive are probobly the best covers I know. The originals are both by Helloween, and if you ask me, they're quite inferior to the covers.
mosfet:
My favorites are:
Orbital - Doctor Who
Devo - NIN's "Head Like a hole"
Nine Inch Nails - Joy Division's "Dead Souls"
Ministry - Bob Dylan's "Lay Lady Lay"
Other good ones: (Off Darkest Hour CD)
Rosetta Stone - Helter Skelter
Electric Hellfire CLub - Calling Dr. Luv
Mephisto Waltz - White Rabbit
But I just found (off of IndieFeed.com PodCast, then buying the CD):
Blood for Blood doing a metal version of Del Shannon's "Runaway"
This last one ranks near the best cover I've heard in a while.
hooligan:
"boys don't cry"- Sheer Terror (the cure)
"Borstal Breakout" - Sick Of It All (Sham 69)
The Clash covering...
"Wrong Em Boyo" - The Rulers
"Police and Thieves" - Junior Murvin
"Pressure Drop" - Toots
OK, I like the Clash, sorry.
"Monkey Man" - Specials (Toots)
Oh, and this one will get me mercilessly flamed, but...
"Sweet Home Alabama" - Skrewdriver (Lynyrd Skynyrd)
Inlander:

NEVER apologise for liking the Clash!
Also, their cover of "Brand New Cadillac" on London Calling was awesome as well.
