mp3 -- song covers that completely pwn the original
    #6131822 -

We all know them: songs that originally were pretty run of the mill or even sub par, but then another band comes along and records a version that rocks!

Is the v2.0 lightyears better than the original?

My example would be the song "Big in Japan".

The original, in my personal opinion, sucked bland ass.
Along came the Guano Apes years later, who hooked it up to the grid.

Powerful music and vocals - and now it rocks ^_^

I think the ZZ Top version of Viva Las Vegas was an improving cover :smile:

Pantera's cover of Planet Caravan.
There, I said it, I should have said that years ago, I feel so much better.
Ok, please send your hate filled PM's now. :lol:

I found this online, I will have to check it out.......

Radiohead "Nobody Does it Better" (Carly Simon)

Thom Yorke introduces this live cover as "the sexiest song that was ever written." The perfect execution of this tune makes one think that Carly Simon wrote the
it as a preemptive response to the cover.

One of my favorite covers of all time. The Mamas & the Papas cover Twist and Shout... dig on the organ and melodies.

"Suck" originally by Pigface, covered by NIN. Trent Reznor made the song his own, and the original version, well, sucked.

^^A nice live version here.

i was about to say that. but alot of old hippies don't agree. i saw them in concert and he sang that song more that it's fair justice. they started the song with a rebel flag les paul and the lead singer.
