    Default Favourite Cover Version

    Whats your favourite cover version of a song?

    I have to say I love Metallica's version of Whisky in the Jar and Turn the Page is no bad either.

    others would be

    Ben Taylor - Time of the Season
    Ataris - Boys of the Summer.

    I love covers, great to hear bands doing other folks material.

    Favourite at the moment has to be The Who's - I Can See For Miles by Incubus.

    Well its a bit of a chnge in direction but Sixpence None the Richer's version of "There she goes" is awful!

    and then New Found Glory 's version of Sixpence None the Richer's "Kiss me" is a sin! As if the song wasnt bad enough

    We Are Scientist's do a made up version of Sigur Ros's 'Hopippolla', its quite funny!
