Title: Best and Worst Covers
The Last Free Voice - April 9, 2005 02:32 PM (GMT)
By this I mean cover songs, not album covers.
I like all but one AFI cover, that being Head Like A Hole.
Manson's cover of Personal Jesus isn't horrible, which I was surprised about.
What do you guys think?

I hated Alien Ant Farm's cover of "Smooth Criminal" and Limp Bizkit's "Behind Blue Eyes" cover
The Last Free Voice - April 9, 2005 03:05 PM (GMT)
Yea. Both of those sucked. I hated Bizkit's cover of "Faith" too.

Best cover: Jimi Hendrix's "All Along the Watchtower", Guns N Roses' "Knockin on Heaven's Door", SRV's "Little Wing"
Worst: The previously stated Limp Bizkit songs and Madonna's "American Pie"

I didn't mind "Faith" so much, but it's mostly because I'd never heard the original at the time

Worst: Vanessa Carlton - Time is on my side...Does this whore really have a record deal? God that's awful.
Best: Otis Rediing's cover of Try a Little Tenderness - Hey, I'm a softie at heart.

I think that song being used by TimeWarner Cable completely ruined her as a musician for me

I would like to add that Johnny Cash had some great covers in the final 10 years of his career, including but not limited too:
Hurt by Nine Inch Nails
Rusty Cage by Soundgarden
Rowboat by Beck
Thirteen by Danzig

Those two were incredible. I may go with Hurt as my favorite cver.
