Cover version - a song with a new rendition of a previously recorded, commercially released song.
You think you would know if you covered a song and it flat out sucked, right? I guess its all opinion anyways. Some really talented people have covered songs from the past, and some people coved already good songs, and, baaaaasically ruined them.
There are way too many songs (good and bad) covered. Here are the good, bad, and.... maybe ugly.
These are good covers... or hard to say what's better... both good songs.
The Leaves - Hey Joe (Cover version Here)
Jimi Hendrix - Voodoo Chile (Slight Return) (Cover version Here)
Dale Hawkins - Suzy Q (Cover version Here)
Jimmie Rodgers - T For Texas (Cover version Here)
Holwlin' Wolf - Spoonful (Cover version Here)
Santo & Johnny - Sleepwalk (Cover version Here) <--- You may know as Nick Trapasso's song.
These covers really bug me...
Limp Bizkit - Behind Blue Eyes (Original Here)
Metallica - Astronomy (Original Here)
Lenny Kravitz - American Woman (Original Here)
Chris Cornell - Billie Jean (Original Here) <----- How does anyone think they could improve this?
Pantera - Cat Scratch Fever (Original Here)
Red Hot Chili Peppers - Fire (Original Here)
Red Hot Chili Peppers - Havana Affair (Original Here)
Hootie & The Blowfish - Hey Hey What Can I Do (Original Here)
311 - Love Song (Original Here) <--- Stupid 311, you could never out-do Robert Smith
Remember these are all in opinion, so if you want to hate, go right ahead.
