Whole Lotta Love - Goldbug

BTW - Anybody that puts the fucking Scissor Sisters version of Comfortably Numb on here is banned. Forever. And then allowed on just to be banned a bit more.

Comfortably Numb - Scissor Sisters

 

[The Bear]

Pink Floyd are pretty cack anyway.

I like the Killers but think this cover is atrocious.

I love Hurt by Johnny Cash Joe Cocker's version of With A Little Help From My Friends and The Man Who Sold the World by Nirvana.

That's my favourite cover. I like Frightened Rabbit's Set You Free too.

Fucking behave

Anyway

Good Times, Bad Times - Nuclear Assault
The Immigrant's Song - Dark Angel

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

Stone Dead Forever - Metallica

Miles better than their insipid version of Whiskey in the Jar. Breadfan is an excellent Metallica cover version as well.

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

Pulp's cover of Whiskey In The Jar is quality.

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

Metallica version is less so, for me anyway. I really don't like it.

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

Overkill - Fuck You

Originally a Subhumans track, so it's a cover, and a great one.

 

[Tyrannosaurus Dan]

I love Metallica's Whiskey in the Jar!

 

[James]

Carpenters - Close to you
Jimi Hendrix - All Along The Watchtower

 

[Tyrannosaurus Dan]

Nirvana - Love Buzz

 

[The Bear]

All Along The Watchtower - Jimi Hendrix
Like A Rolling Stone - Hendrix again!
Feeling Good - Muse
Till There Was You - Paul McCartney (Well the Beatles are credited but it was all him)

100% gash.

Always on my mind - Elvis
Suspicious Minds - Fine Young Cannibals

 

[machin05]

Lemonheads - Mrs. Robinson

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

Anti-Social by Anthrax is a cover - pretty sure it was a Trust track.

And it is fucking ace.

 

[Boozad]

Anti-Social by Anthrax is a cover - pretty sure it was a Trust track.

And it is fucking ace.

Correct on both counts.
