Moderator Tommy Posted June 13, 2017 Moderator Posted June 13, 2017 But as nudge suggested, Johnny Cash's Hurt is probably the best.

Dr. Gonzo Posted June 13, 2017 Posted June 13, 2017 I don't think I've ever heard a Beatles cover I've liked. Even Coroner couldn't pull me in with a cover. The originals are always significantly better. Bob Dylan's been covered really well though. All 3 of those shit all over the Nobel Prize winning songwriter's versions imo. But I hate his voice - can't deny that he's a fantastic songwriter. Otherwise those covers would have been shite. Bonus metal cover: Death's cover of Painkiller is the best cover of a metal song I've ever heard - it sounds distinctly like Death, but retains so much of the original feeling from the Judas Priest song. It's a quality tribute.
Machado Posted June 13, 2017 Author Posted June 13, 2017 One of my favorites. You know you've done it right when you make Robert Plant tear up.

I love the way the video is shot too.

Although, I don't think it's quite like Trent Reznor saying the song is now Cash's - because it's also probably the most iconic Leonard Cohen song.
Devil-Dick Willie Posted June 15, 2017 Posted June 15, 2017 You're all missing the best one. Also, the other best one.

Machado Posted June 15, 2017 Author Posted June 15, 2017 Came across this the other day. Best tribute I've found.
Large Posted June 16, 2017 Posted June 16, 2017 Just gotta say, y'all have some 'interesting' tastes in music.
Large Posted June 16, 2017 Posted June 16, 2017 The Animals track is a tune. The other one ain't for me.
Subscriber Viva la FCB+ Posted June 16, 2017 Subscriber Posted June 16, 2017 Probably my favourite live album/dvd. They did a cover of the Ramones Havana Affair.
Administrator Stan Posted June 16, 2017 Administrator Posted June 16, 2017 Killing Me Softly - The Fugees Remember growing up listening to this and only realised a couple of years ago it was a cover.
