By (user no longer on site) OP     over a year ago

Just been listening to a load of live lounge stuff and it got me thinking.

What is/are your favourite cover versions? Not talking about insipid X factor karaoke, but those ones where you just stop and go 'Wow!'. Where the band stamped their identity all over it.

Starter for 10

Muse...Feelin Good
