So I was at a recent Velvet Revolver gig (the one where Scott Weiland checked himself into rehab immediately after the show) whose setlist is half comprised of G'n'R and STP songs. I got to thinking (during the VR cover of "Patience") which cover versions do I appreciate as much as the original. Here's my list. Anyone reccommend any other good ones? Bonus points for a link.
Helter Skelter - Beatles
U2 (this song's been covered to death, but U2's is the seminal version) -
Across the Universe - Beatles
by Fiona Apple -
Hurt - NIN
Johnny Cash -
Hallelujah - Leonard Cohen (yes american idol reminded me of this)
Jeff Buckley -
Wonderwall - Oasis
Ryan Adams -
That's Entertainment - The Jam
Morrissey - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6hl1CK1JQCQ (sorry couldn't find the studio cut which I prefer to this live version)
Bizzare Love Triangle - New Order
Frente! - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IJ1c9ErCn7w
Dead Souls - Joy Division
NIN - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pOBV2Zl2cNs
