[theM3rcenary]

Metallica's cover of Tuesday's Gone is amazing.

 

[N99GT]

one for the dubstep/dnb heads!

Rusko- everyday Netsky Remix

​

Another great one!

 

[Smuttysy]

This absolute classic has to be in here somewhere (I just found my old copy of this and started playing it again) Just wish I could work out how to get the video embedded here, lol.

Or even this one, major nostalgia moments!

 

[Solo]

The ultimate cover is muse's version of 'feeling good'

 

[Cap'n Jack]

A couple of great covers done in completely different styles (bluegrass and mariachi respectively) to the originals:

Chris Thile - Heart in a Cage, originally performed by The Strokes




Mariachi el Bronx - I Would Die 4 U, originally performed by Prince

​

 

[arvore]

Another good one:

​

 

[Prosthetic]

So much better then the original...






Metal bands always do it better.

EDIT:
One of the greatest riffs ever... Done perfectly by SG

Pretty damn good.

 

[Moglet]

Absent Elk doing a Girls Aloud track, definitely worth it even if you hate the original!

 

[slims]

Two of my favorites. The Black Keys cover i such a different style to the original by Bob Dylan but it definitely works.


Best cover of this song by far.

 

[Racedude]

'Nuff said.

 

[BubbleBelly542]

Either My Chemical Romance covering what I believe is Bob Dylan's Desolation Row or Green Day covering I Fought The Law

 

[Dennisch]

Best.


EVER

 

[a6m5]

One of my favorite Lennon track.


Rockin' track originally by the Cardigans. 👍


Come on!

Calvin Harris - I'm Not Alone (deadmau5 Remix)

The original I'm Not Alone was a bit slow. The beat was more attractive in the remix.

 

[MidnitePurple]

Love this one

 

[Nessy]

I like the original 'Stranglers' version but i prefer this by 'Omar'.. 'Golden brown'

[Slash]

My votes go to:

Metallica - Turn the Page (John English cover) or Tool - No Quarter (Led Zeppelin cover).

I believe Bob Segar did Turn the Page first.

[Baron Blitz Red]

Might have missed them when reading this thread but:

Blinded by the Light by Manfred Mann was a Springsteen song. I really like that version... but hey, I'm older so that's why I think of it.

Entire albums of really good cover tunes:

Tribute to the Gods by Iced Earth. Great band!!!

Working Man: A Rush Tribute

Nativity in Black: Black Sabbath tribute

Stone Free: A Tribute to Jimi Hendrix

Covered in Nails: NIN tribute

 

[Diamond1586]

Search for adele - set fire to the rain (Thomas gold remix).
Its just amazing!

 

[Ed Nut]

machines heads cover of the police's message in a bottle is incredible.

 

[Guitar613]

William Shatner's cover of Spirit in the Sky

[terminator363]

Two songs have never gone together so well. Moby even claimed that it was better than the original.

 

[tuga703]

For me it would have to be this
