Cover songs

[Robstar]

That cover of tribute is pretty awesome as well, another one to add to the collection

Here are two more, first from HIM




and one from a band that never got well known, even when Marilyn Manson took them under his wing, Jack Off Jill (Kittie before Kittie was Kittie)

That isn't a patch on the original Cure version, especially the version from Mixed Up.

I remember having this, I think it was on the Atlantic records 40th anniversary album or an Elektra anniversary album or something

[Bodom]

An acoustic folk metal spin on Belinda Carlisle's "Heaven Is a Place On Earth"

[Robstar]

This is definitely one of my all-time faves.

There's some great renditions on that whole album. I especially liked 'Beautiful World', the Devo song

[Iron Ape]

for years I didn't know that this was a cover

It was actually the impetus for me getting into Springsteen.

I don't actually know what that term means, so I am assuming that you don't think it's a good cover or does anything really new

What did you think of their cover of "Maggie's Farm"?

Nah, not as good IMO. Has that watered down/washed out grunge sound to it.

there is also the Adele version, but I didn't put it up at first because of the Adele hate :P


I really like the minimalist approach to it, and I honestly love her voice, so it scores a lot of points for me personally.
