10.12.18 | Hallelujah (and Cohen in general) has been bettered by many, with Buckley's being the most popular. |

Running Up That Hill (Kate Bush)"
This just makes me angry. |

10.12.18 | I don't know 5, but I disagree with 1, 3, and 4 a lot.
2 I agree with though... |
ArsMoriendi
10.12.18 | PJ Harvey - "Highway '61 Revisited" |

10.12.18 | Can't really comment on 1 or 5, but the OG 3 & 4 aren't really improvable, agreed.

10.12.18 | Metallica - Turn The Page. This and the original are so close and depict the same imagery in a different way and with different feelings. Metallica's just feels dirtier to me... which is kind of the theme of the song.
Avenged Sevenfold - Flash of the Blade (Iron Maiden)
Johnny Cash - Hurt (NIN)
And the greatest cover of all time:
Children of Bodom - Oops I Did It Again |
Casavir
10.12.18 | "Avenged Sevenfold - Flash of the Blade (Iron Maiden)"
You're joking. |

10.12.18 | Obvious, but
Dead Kennedys - Viva Las Vegas (Elvis Presley) |
Demon of the Fall
10.12.18 | 'Painkiller - Death' (2). Also their cover of God of Thunder
Agreed about Hallelujah too.
Opeth - Circle of the Tyrants |
Demon of the Fall
10.12.18 | Has anyone heard the original of 'Wild is the Wind'? I love Bowie's version but no idea how it fares against the original. |
StrikeOfTheBeast
10.12.18 | Better By You Better Than Me. JP killed it on that cover. |
ilovewhiskey
10.12.18 | @Casavir not joking in the slightest because it's better than the original, which is the point of this thread |
Coast
10.12.18 | Rolf Harris - Stairway To Heaven |
TwigTW
10.12.18 | @Demon of the Fall: Johnny Mathis did the original of "Wild Is The Wind." Bowie's version is definitely better. |

10.12.18 | Don’t know if it surpasses the origional but Buffalo Toms version of Only Living Boy In New York is one of me faves of the year. |
BigPleb
10.12.18 | Always preferred the NIN version of Hurt tbh. |
OverkillFanBoy1980
10.12.18 | Megadeth - these Boots is also a better cover

The Story So Far - Loro (Pinback)
A Static Lullaby - Toxic (Britney Spears)
Rise Against - Any Way You Want It (Journey) |
AlexKzillion
10.12.18 | Most songs that Metallica have covered. If I had to choose one it'd probably be Diamond Head's "The Prince" |
xAshtrayux
10.13.18 | Agree so bad with the Placebo RUTH cover. It's amazing. Same with the Nurse Who Loved Me APC version.
Personally, I adore the Orgy cover of Blue Monday and I would take it over the original any day, but I suppose it might be blasphemy for most people. |
dbizzles
10.13.18 | Nah fuck that. Orgy’s version is the shit. The percussion is legendary. |

10.13.18 | I think Hands Like Houses cover of Torn is pretty great |
