Quote:
they covered that song?! i've had the original version stuck in my head for a week now. |
I can't be bothered to check and see if I mentioned this before, but Sundial's cover of The Open Mind's "Magic Potion" totally rocks.
Crystalized Movements' version of "Baby Your Phrasing Is Bad" is pretty damn killer also. |
J Mascis' version of Lynyrd Skynyrd's "Every mother's son"
Will Oldham's version of Lynyrd Skynyrd's "Every mother's son" |
The Ciccone youth covers are great.
Elliott Smith could have covered Razorlight and made it sound good, so anything he did - Jealous Guy, Thirteen, and more Johnny Cash of course, everyone says it because its true The Manic Street Preachers have a good line in covers too |
