Half way down page 2 before you got to the Hendrix cover of Watchtower? What is wrong with you people? ... Also, Cowboy Junkies' cover of VU's Sweet Jane from their debut album 'The Trinity Sessions', which every right minded soul should own. I was thinking 'that cover of Sweet Jane isn't very original, because it sounds too much like the original'. Then I checked and realised the version I'd always heard was the Cowboy Junkies one  (from the Natural Born Killers soundtrack, which was awesome) [edit] Now listened to the original and wasn't such a fan, but I do like this live version: |

I've had Cowboy Junkies' Sweet Jane stuck in my head for 3 days now.
I hate you all.

Todd Terje and Bryan Ferry's cover of Robert Palmer's Johnny and Mary is sublime.

I can’t be bothered to go back and check if I shared already but all the Stranger Things inspired Kate Bush talk hasme revisiting this lockdown bedroom cover classic. Its genuinely become one of my favourite covers of anything.

I know you've all been eager to see a fingerstyle guitar cover of a Backstreet Boys song. It's your lucky day.

Similarly, I can sense the eagerness for a nu-metal cover of a Eurodance classic. Here's one.

Yay, this thread is back. This was on the The English soundtrack and I rather liked it.

It's a known fact that a metal version of anything instantly makes it five billion times better. Love Frog Leap studios stuff. His version of Africa is awesome as well but this is currently my fav:

I rather like this cover.
I think it's that industrial-sounding metal snare hit.

Stay - Ghost ft Patrick Wilson (recorded for the new Insidious film)
The original is a classic. What middle aged male doesn't remember the video when Siobhan walks down the stairs mid-way through the song. Makes me go all tingly.
Anyway. I'm not a fan of Ghost but I always knew Patrick Wilson could sing and well, this version is actually quite bloody good:

If I remember correctly, Siobhan was quite pissed during the video shoot, she had been waiting around for her part to be filmed and got sloshed on vodka. Knowing that makes me like it even more, weirdly |
