| 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. _________________ "The cat is the most ruthless, most terrifying of animals." - Spock in the "Catspaw" episode of ToS Season 2.

| 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!! _________________ "If you're a false, don't entry, because you'll be burned and died!"

| 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. Now I'm ready for my punishmet : . | |

| 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! _________________ "The cat is the most ruthless, most terrifying of animals." - Spock in the "Catspaw" episode of ToS Season 2.

| 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!!! |

| 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. | |

| 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. _________________ "The cat is the most ruthless, most terrifying of animals." - Spock in the "Catspaw" episode of ToS Season 2.

9. Supernaut I wonder if this is the 1000 HOMO DJ's version? 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. _________________ "The cat is the most ruthless, most terrifying of animals." - Spock in the "Catspaw" episode of ToS Season 2.

White Zombie - I'm Your Boogeyman _________________ "The cat is the most ruthless, most terrifying of animals." - Spock in the "Catspaw" episode of ToS Season 2.
