Favorite Covers
 

Go ahead and list the cover songs you like.

I love
Grizzly Bear's cover of The Crystal's "He Hit Me"
Local H's Cover of Toxic by bs
Fiona Apple's cover of Sally's Song from The Nightmare Before Christmas

I have lots more.

The two big, well-known ones that always come to mind for me are:

• Devo's cover of the Rolling Stones' "Satisfaction"
• Cowboy Junkies' cover of the Velvet Underground's "Sweet Jane"

But all these are also great:

• Alien Sex Fiend's cover of the Cramps' "Silver Machine"
• Cornelius's cover of the old, old song "Brazil" (according to Wikipedia written by someone named Ary Barroso)
• Faith No More's cover of the Dead Kennedys "Let's Lynch the Landlord"
• The super-sleezy Motorhead/Wendy O. Williams cover of Tammy Wynette's "Stand By Your Man"
• Mike Ness' cove of Bob Dylan's "Don't Think Twice"
• REM's cover of the Velvet Underground's "Pale Blue Eyes"
• Also REM's cover of the Clique's "I Am Superman"

Been there maaany times.
