What's your favourite cover song.
Mine is Metallica's version of Turn The Page
Mine is Metallica's version of whiskey in the jar  "
I like most of the tracks on the Garage Inc album. That's probably my second favourite off that album. |

S&M is one of their best in my opinion.
On the subject of orchestral covers. If you like rock/metal. Check out 2 Cellos, they've done a few rock covers and so have Harp Twins. |

"S_inedown's version of Skynyrd's Simple Man "
Saw them play in Liverpool before the maiden gig a few weeks ago. Hadn't heard of them before. They were brilliant. Missed half the set though.  |

Gona have to youtube that one, big Prodigy fan, and I grew up listening to Lost Prophets, I was a huge fan of their music. Just a shame He-Who-Shall-Not-Be-Named sank that ship in the worst way possible. |

"Lost Prophets - Omen (Prodigy)
Watched them live and their version was incredible.
Lets not mention lost prophets "
Yes, the lead singer is a terrible human being, but that shouldn't detract from the music that the rest of the band helped make.
I still listen to them because I like the music, it doesn't mean I condone anything.
Also:
I Prevail - Blank Space
Nice metal twist on a pop song |

Choir boys - Tears in Heaven
https://youtu.be/zj57wkcqAtU
Originally by Eric Clapton
https://youtu.be/JxPj3GAYYZ0
This song was written about the pain and loss Eric Clapton felt following the death of his 4-year-old son, Conor fell from a window of a 53rd-floor New York apartment owned by his mother's friend on March 20, 1991. Clapton arrived at the apartment shortly after the accident.

They also cover no time to cry by the sisters of mercy "
i'll go have a look in a second. i found a trance version of nymphetamine that i love, not sure if it's too 'dancey' for your tastes but i like this type of stuff. starts off a bit poop but once the song actually is in the tune it's great,i think.

It's a whole album but Easy Star All Stars' Dub Side of The Moon is awesome.
And Little Roy's The Battle For Seattle album of reggae Nirvana covers is pretty great too! |
