Best song covers

[Andrew1911]

I've got to tip my hat to Hendrix improving Dylan's All Along The Watchtower in almost everyway. Especially the singing. Jesus, I hate Dylan's singing. His lyrics are top notch but his vocals... *Shudders*

I like Cupid's Chokehold by Gym Class Heroes.  v;

[Samus Aran]

Dylan's vocals aren't completely unbearable, but I'm not a fan of them either. Here's some of my favorite covers:

~"Knockin' on Heaven's Door" by Guns N' Roses (original by Bob Dylan)
~"Grown So Ugly" and "Do the Rump" by The Black Keys (I dunno who did the originals)
~"Action" by Def Leppard (original by Sweet)
~"All Along the Watchtower" by Jimi Hendrix (original by Bob Dylan)
~"Cats in the Cradle" by Ugly Kid Joe (original by Harry Chapin)

And here's the Zeppelin one...this list is kinda confusing, so I'm making a seperate one for them.

~"Babe I'm Gonna Leave You" (original by Joan Boez)

~"The Lemon Song" (combination of original work, "Killing Floor" by Howlin' Wolf, and "Traveling Riverside Blues" by Robert Johnson)

~"Gallows Pole" (original artist unknown; taken from a centuries-old folk song that is usually titled "A Maid Freed from the Gallows", though musically it is most similar to the Leadbelly version of the song)

~"When the Levee Breaks" (original by Kansas Joe McCoy and Memphis Minnie)

You guys are gonna hate me for this, but I love "Working Class Hero" by Green Day(original John Lennon)

[Fireman.exe]

I like the cover "Man who sold the world" by Nirvana, originally by David Bowie. Also, Soundgarden did a pretty good job on "Come Together", originally done by the Beatles.

Ah, I forgot Oasis' cover of My Generation. The fact that they have Zak Starkey know makes it oh so better.

I also forgot Oasis's cover of I Am The Walrus (The Beatles)

[Karel]

Frank Zappa's cover of Hendrix's Purple Haze.

What do you think of Oasis' cover of Helter Skelter? Most of the people I've talked to about it say it's horrible, I like it personally.

Forgot these covers:
Carnation-Oasis & Friends (Originally done by The Jam)
Hey, Hey, My, My-Oasis (Neil Young)

I pretty much like all of Oasis' covers.

I wouldn't say it's horrible, but if I was to make a top 50 Oasis songs, I'm not sure it would get in.

Oh definitely.

This entire thread is full of idiots who didn't mention Johnny Cash's cover of Hurt.
