"Coheed and Cambria - Hello (Adele)"
That is a really good cover though if am right Claudio Sanchez done the cover as none of the other members of Coheed were there but then again they could have done it in a live version
am going to see them this week amazing band
Oh and for anyone not heard of Coheed and Cambria give them a listen as the full albums barr the last two are concept albums that builds up a story called the Amory Wars |

No 2
and most anything by Nouvelle Vague.
Try Guns Of Brixton (The Clash) or Psyche (Killing Joke) or Blue Monday (New Order).
If you enjoy great covers by a great band doing it in their own style do yourself a favour and check them out.
You can thank me privately.
