 Cover Versions I'm obsessed with cover versions of songs, i'll put up some of my favourites later on. This wouldn't rank amongst them, but i just heard it and i feel the need to share. Is a PJ Harvey cover, though the original song is just 1 minute so this is considerably expanded on. I love Marianne Faithfull and PJ Harvey, so this is a pretty perfect mix for me.

Re: Cover Versions I don't usually like covers, unless they're the first versions I hear. Here's a singer from YouTube covering one of my favorite songs from Lifehouse called "Simon."

Re: Cover Versions Knots, I love that cover. CCR rules. One cover I enjoyed recently was Yakuza doing Pink Floyd's Lucifer Sam. They really put their own spin on it and made it even darker. It was probably one of the few songs I enjoyed from the Syd Barret tribute album. I can't find it on youtube, but here's their myspace. First song on the list. http://www.myspace.com/yakuza

Yeah, the sound quality could be better, but this is so cool, imo . . .

Re: Cover Versions Joan Jett & the Blackhearts covering - I Love Rock and Roll
When I was 9, this was my favorite song, and I wanted to be Joan Jett.
I was a confused lil' wee Knots.

Re: Cover Versions I dislike when people make Hatsune Miku do covers of songs. Sure, she's a program and her voice can't be perfect, but after a while her voice gets really ear-bleed-y and annoying. There are a lot of songs that only she sings that would sound great if they were sung by a regular singer. Also, when some girls cover songs from an anime they all have that same Kagome voice. Or that really annoying squirrel voice. I don't know. x_x

Re: Cover Versions Not a fan of covers and typically don't even give them a shot.
