Well, not all covers are bad, there are rare cases of cover songs being better than the original...Some of these would include (only my opinion).

Jimi Hendrix - All Along The Watchtower
Blue Cheer - Summertime Blues
White Stripes - I Just Dont Know What To Do With Myself
Yes - America
Nirvana - Pretty much every cover they have done

And just about every damn song Elvis did was a cover.

He deserves a good kick in the balls for covering Depeche Modes Personal Jesus.

And even worse for Gasp, AC/DCs Highway to Hell. O_O


btw, who do you guys think does worse AC/DC covers, Six Feet Under or Celine Dion?

Manson added his own twist to personal jesus and thats just him, he made it sound like a Manson song, not just a generic copy cat cover which i think is nice, even if im not big on manson anymore. Same goes with tainted love.

Well, Kashmir pretty much sucks?I think the rap version highly discredits the quality of the original!!!:usehead:
On top of that, I've become more and more sick of Aerosmith's "Walk This Way"..........The song is already overplayed so much and the rapping going along with it gets kinda old after awhile, ya know?On the other hand, Anthrax's "Bring Tha Noise" is a pretty good jam!!!
Happy NewYear!!!:beer:

No one did a rap version of Kashmir, Puffy Duddy (or whatever the hell hes called now) just sampled the main riff...Not the same.
