Good cover songs

[CharlieDog]

I think Johnny Cashs version of Hurt is amazing, and waay better than NIN.

And that cover of LMFAO was awesome. He has an amazing voice.

Put me on the Johnny Cash "Hurt" bandwagon. I read an interview with Trent Reznor after it was released where he remarked that he didn't think they were going to perform it in concert anymore because it wasn't their song anymore -- it belonged to Johnny Cash now.

I don't like this BETTER, but I like it differently. I feel like it's more of an interpretation than a cover, and I am grateful to Louie for turning me on to it: http://youtu.be/QohUdrgbD2k

BIG improvement on the original for me: http://youtu.be/Fa8A4k1WQSs

I love almost every version of this -- but compared to the Motorhead version http://youtu.be/OIh3nO6-V_A

EDIT: I love anything Eva Cassidy ever covered: http://youtu.be/ZGwDYBWEDSc

[Romy]

Right now, Marylin Manson's cover of the Nightmare Before Christmas theme song. I like it much better than the original from the movie.

And Slaughter of the Bluegrass covering Amon Amarth's Twilight of the Thunder God. Viking death metal + bluegrass = epic.

Most anything by these guys:

I love Boyce Avenue so much I've deleted the originals of several songs off my iPod and replaced the songs with their covers.

I love this cover of Slow Dancing in a Burning Room as well:

[Kat09Tails]

This song makes me smile every time

I am not sure this is a cover but well, very few people know about this version.

[Laurelin]

I'm loving all of these. Like seriously.

Love the guy singing LMFAO. I hate that song but I loved his version.

[Renee750il]

I love Slaughter of the Bluegrass, Romy

Oh, and this cover http://youtu.be/ii8u4GDCwRU

Didnt say they could improve on any Maiden song, I just love it when they do. Maiden is one of Anthrax's favorite bands.

I loved Delilah's version of Grenade.

I wish the rest of their stuff had been as good.
