Manfred Mann - Blinded By The Light and For You (both orignally by Springsteen)


...and pretty much any cover of a Dylan tune. The dude can write music but he sure can't sing it.

I think the album version of Faith No Mores cover of War Pigs is better than the original. And i like the Sabs a whole lot more than FNM.

I'm listening to the HOLY DIO tribute album right now and y'know what? Blind Guardian's version of "Don't Talk To Strangers" totally smokes the original. And I'm not even a huge B.G. fan!!

Over the weekend, I've heard Bob Dylan's original versions of both "Knockin' On Heaven's Door" and "All Along the Watchtower". I can say without a doubt that I prefer the GnR and Hendrix versions. They are far and away better than Dylan's monotone drone, in my opinion.

I'm not sure if I mentioned this one already (if I did, I don't remember any backlash that surely came from it and will come from it) but I prefer Type O Negative's version of Black Sabbath more than Black Sabbath's.

I prefer Type O's version of Cinnamon Girl.

Also, anything covered on any Me First and the Gimme Gimmes album. Their covers of song dreck like "Mandy", "Tomorrow" and "Seasons In The Sun" always rule!

KISS - 2,000 Man (Originally performed by the Rolling Stones)
Motley Crue - Anarchy in the UK (Originally performed by the Sex Pistols)
Aerosmith - I'm Down (Originally performed by the Beatles); Train Kept A Rollin' (Tiny Bradshaw)
Dio - any time he performs Deep Purple's Mistreated (my fav song of theirs). Though Coverdale was excellent, Ronnie's overpowering, operatic voice does true justice to the song. LONG LIVE DIO!!! Cover Songs That You Prefer Over The Original - Page 5 505193 headbanger

Just now heard this, on the new Firewind album they do a cover of the 80's hit, Maniac (He's [the changed it to She's] a Maniac, maniac on the floor. And [she's]dancing like [she's] never done before). Definatly kills the origional. headbanger

I don't know how, but they made it work.

Your punishment is that you get to live with yourself holding that opinion for the rest of your natural born life, and for all eternity - unless you come to your senses before you die that is. Suspect

Oh sure, you say that now...but just wait and let it sink in for awhile. You'll be tearing your fingernails out and trying to skin yourself alive before too long... No

And then of course there's the inevitable scrotal pox... Shocked

I just found out Ministry has a cover disc coming out next month. Here's the track listing:


1. Under My Thumb
2. Bang a Gong
3. Radar Love
4. Space Truckin'
5. Black Betty
6. Mississippi Queen
7. Just Got Paid
8. Roadhouse Blues
9. Supernaut
10. Lay Lady Lay
11. What A Wonderful World


I'm pretty sure something from this CD will make my list of preferred covers.

Yeah, I don't know. I already have Lay Lady Lay on the Filth Pig album and the Revolting Cocks cover I posted above but other than that, I'm not sure how Ministry handles covers.

Opened up the industrial cover section of my brain:

Marilyn Manson - Sweet Dreams Are Made Of This
Marilyn Manson - Personal Jesus

White Zombie - I'm Your Boogeyman
