| We've all heard and even uttered the phrase: They do a good version but not as good as the origional. Does anybody have a cover song they think is actually better than the origional (opinions obviously)? I can pick ones I think are just as good as the origional but not much that are better IMO. The only one I can think of is Angel Dust's cover of Rainbow-Temple Of The King. I know it's a classic but the acoustic of it just doesn't grab me like the slow-heavy-slow cover by Angel Dust. | |

Another good one. They also do a killer version of "Heaven And Hell." Not better, but awesome. |

| I don't know if i necessarily like it better than the original but Faith No More's cover of War Pigs is exellent and the guitar is dead on like Iommi but better production. I also like Believer's version of U2's Like a Song. | |

Blows the original away! Woah! That says a lot! ...I'd say, it's a cool cover, but does not touch the original...nobody does that better than Iron Maiden themselves... in my opinion | |
