Best Cover Versions

The 50 best cover versions of original songs. What, no “Louisiana Hooker With Herpes“? Must agree with their #1 pick, although Johnny Cash’s rendition of U2’s “One” comes close.

    Maybe you should listen to my cover of “come as you are” of Nirvana…

    http://www.thenewshit.splinder.com click on “nice shoes,wanna fuck?”(the album title) and enjoy it!

    Don’t hate me,I’m a beautiful guy,and the 88 version of Moggio is great.

    IMHO, “Hey Joe” cover by Hendrix should be top of the list – it changed the direction of music completely.
    (Hey Barry, whadya think of Johnny Cash’s versions of “Bridge Over Troubled Water” and “We’ll Meet Again” ?)

    I’m tempted to say those versions are better than the originals… BTW let’s not forget NIN’s Hurt.
