What are some of your favourite covers?

[Bengal]

It's all good, all the time I meant no harm bro.

No worries. I have no problem with people catching my "issues"!

I'm just pissed that I misspelled it. One of my favorite Metallica songs and I can't spell it right? Damn...

I must be ready for the weekend...

EDIT: Was Blitzkrieg by Metallica a cover? I think it was. If so, I like that one too...

[zeegler]

Maiden-Cross Eyed Mary
Foo Fighters-Baker Street
CodeSeven-Boys of Summer
Priest-Diamonds and Rust
AFI-Halloween

I thought it was the Ataris who did Boys of Summer? Either way, I agree, I actually really like it.

Tori Amos has done a bunch of covers that I love, especially Nirvana's Smells like Teen Spirit and Slayer's Raining Blood.

Dragonlord - Emerald (Thin Lizzy)
Dokken - One
Iron Maiden - Cross Eyed Mary
System of A Down - The Metro
Sepultura - Orgasmatron
At The Gates - Captor of Sin
Gov't Mule - Sweet Leaf
Type O Negative - Black Sabbath (From the Satanic Perspective)
Led Zeppelin - Babe I'm Gonna Leave You
Judas Priest - Diamonds and Rust

I gotta say Toe, I absolutely HATED Type O's version of Black Sabbath.

Tori Amos though, goddam it, she does a cover of Angie that totally blows away the Stones.

[Tashtego]

I don't like the Stevie Ray covers of Hendrix that much but I do really like his cover of Things That I Used to Do.

Well, I just downloaded the metro by SOAD. I should have stayed away from SOAD. I keep telling myself that.

[MikeStrat]

A lot of good covers on this thread.

A few more I like:

SR-71 - Christmas Is The Time To Say I Love You
Leatherwolf - Bad Moon Rising
Red Hot Chili Peppers - Higher Ground
Nickleback - Saturday Nights Alright For Fighting
The Ataris - Boys Of Summer

Hehe. TON's version does take a little to get into.

I also love Tori's cover of Angie, as well as Zeppelin's Thank You. I gotta dig that EP out from my collection somewhere.

Also, Exodus always does cool covers... the Stones' Bitch, Elvis Costello's Pump It Up, AC/DC's Dirty Deeds and Overdose. I'm sure they've done other AC/DC covers I can't think of at the moment.

That's a great one! Guitar solo on that by Dave Mustaine (he discovered them and produced that first album). They're also now called Nevermore, for those that don't know.
