    The Bands cover of Springsteen’s Atlantic City is better than the original.

    Mentioned repeatedly, but the video is one of the best ever too. If you don't like this song, we can't be friends.



    Has Within Temptation come up yet? They have some cool covers.

    A song which should never have been written in a major key, finally arranged for A minor:



    And some Modest Mouse tunes make for a decent bluegrass base:

    Hildegard von Blingin' does "Paint It Black" by The Rolling Stones.

    My problem with the first, is my shithead neighbor has the whole James Hetfield vibe going on, so it kinda ruins my ability to listen to Metallica any more.
    I know, I know, I try, I just can't get over it.

    I like "Turn the Page". My problem is I'm a Bob Seger fan. It seems to me, for one to like the Metallica version better, you'd have to be a Metallica fan first, and then you just kind of like that song.

    On the other hand, I'm a Temptations fan, but not much of a Rare Earth fan, and I prefer the Rare Earth version of "Get Ready". It has a more masculine, driving power to their version of the song.

    It's been listed here already, but it's soooooo much better than the original that I had to list it again...



    Another cover that is better than the original (but the original is f'ing awesome)...



    Like the one above, this version is f'ing awesome, but the original (written by Grace Slick and performed by her band The Great Society prior to her joining Jefferson Airplane) is also a great piece of music, if somewhat unknown)...
