Lots of great covers mentioned already, and now I will add a few....all by Yngwie....(sorry!). His "Inspiration" album contains some great covers though, most notably "Carry On Wayward Son", "Pictures Of Home", "Gates Of Babylon", "In The Dead Of Night", "The Sails Of Charon" and "Demon's Eye". Other covers he has done which are really good are "Speed King" and "Keep Yourself Alive", and then there is his version of "Gimme, Gimme, Gimme".... |

The Kinks-You Really got Me...oh wait, they wrote it [img]images/smiles/icon_smile.gif[/img]
I've always been partial to Metallica's covers--I cant stand King Diamonds voice, but the melody of Mercyful fate tunes on the latest variation of Garage Days made me appreciate their music more.
On a fun note, I love the Sex Pistols doing Johnny B Goode. |

i abhor when bands do cover songs. i never record them or give them credit cause they didnt do the song. obviously van halen will make the kinks songs outdated, but i dont care. world of promises by in flames is fantastic, but id prefer another original. likewise nevermore and songs of silence---a wicked ripping cover but thats not there own song so i skip it. i think all cover songs should be stuck up somebodys a**. never will accept a cover song cause i demand originality. we wait 2 and 3 years for new material i dont need these bands taking the wimpy way out by copying or plagerizing. keep cover songs the hell away from me.
