Favourite Cover Version

Recommended Posts

By no means a fan of Foals but I think this is half-decent...

Also like to say the Limp Bizkit cover of Behind Blue Eyes is actually not that bad. Sounds a bit overproduced granted, but didn't ruin the original for me by any means.

I heard the Neil Young original today. This is better

as much as I love St Ettiene, I love Neil more.

PS, can a mod remove DANLCFC4EVER's post on this page. It auto plays every time I come here damn it and it's not even good! <_<

Bloody horrible ain't it! :frusty:

Regarding covers, I do like a lot of the Live Lounge covers that Radio 1 do. Every now and then you get some right odd choices that artists/bands decide to cover, but there's also some gems. Leona Lewis - Run started out in the Live Lounge I think.

Others that I like:

Alicia Keys - How To Save Life (originally by The Fray) and just because I love Alicia Keys anyway!

Neyo - Take A Bow (originally by Rihanna)

The Script - Lose Yourself (originallu by Eminem)

These are by no means my favourite cover versions, but they're close, especially the Script's version of Lose Yourself and Run, as mentioned.

Trav, 2 excellent points well made lol

I had no idea Heartbeats was a cover though :o

I've posted it elsewhere, but this is the original

and this is a live version which sounds different yet again in a totally fantastic way!
