Tell me how you like it.

cover
youtube.com/watch?v=WVe-9VWIcCo

uh an easy one is the marylin manson remix of This Is Halloween from the Nightmare Before Christmas. Another is the daft punk version of one more time by black eyed peas. Oh and there's a skrillex (I thiiiink it was skrillex) remix of Sexual Seduction that was great. Not a dubstep fan but that one was pretty dank IMO.

Crazy - Sugarcoma
Walk - Avenged Sevenfold
Hurt - Johnny Cash

Hendrix, All along the watchtower

sound of silence covered by disturbed

99 red balloons - goldfinger

Not bad for a remix.

Aye I just said that

Jimi Hendrix cover of Dylan's "All along the watchtower

Johnny Cash >>> NIN "Hurt"

>Jimmy

>James

I saw NiN in concert once, they were shit.
Shit 25 years ago, they didn't get better.

When the original artist flat out says that the song is no longer his, is the cover really a cover?

deadmou5 'survivalism'
Technically a remix

>they
Trent is the only official member of NIN

Alien Ant Farm / Michael Jackson "Smooth Criminal"

This guy gets it.

Look I love Leonard Cohen but tbh Jeff Buckley did a better job with that song.

correct

Zombie by leo m. Can't remember his last name but he does heavy metal covers off everything

youtube.com/watch?v=_0BPnJUx_Yw

NGHTMRE // Just a Gent : LIMELIGHT

It's a remix, but it's just that much better that I don't enjoy listening to Just a Gents original anymore.

Well then HE is shit, better?
Fuck man, I can't sing or play for shit but if I started a band right now, I'd surely improve over a couple of decades.
How come that fucker still sounds just as bad as he did back then?

youtube.com/watch?v=cyT1E_CROLo

wat you mean live or you just don't like his music?

Van halen - You really got me
Aerosmith - Come together
Motorhead - back door man

(just to trigger a few) Killswitch engage - Holy Diver

Last kiss by Pearl Jam

Is that the one about the car wreck

Van Halen - Dancin' In The Streets

fuck thats a great one.

you are a fgt both songs suck kill yourself please

Both I guess. They/He was a supporting act at the first gig I ever went to. I was only a kid so would have been trying hard to like it, but the overwhelming memory of that day all these years later (26) is that they were absolutely crap.

The other band was good, the headliners were brilliant. it was just them that ruined a nice day out.

I checked them out recently on youtube, no better.

love it

Luno - Death from Above 1979
Bloc party version is good but DFA 1979 sounds way better.

Disturbed - Sound of Silence
Marilyn Manson - Sweet Dreams
Limp Bizkit - Behind Blue Eyes
Five Finger Death Punch - Bad Company

Come at me

Uncle Kracker - Drift Away

the majority of nirvana covers

the majority of jimi's covers

Disappointed Jimi wasn't first comment

John Cale's is really the best version. All others were based off his.

Most of this guys music
it's actually amazing

Each cover of "Killing Me Softly" is better than the previous version.

Atticus Ross is officially a member, now, too. Also, fuck that old croaking frog Johnny Cash. I doubt if he'd even heard of Nine Inch Nails before Rick Rubin sat down in front of him and said "here, play these cover songs so that you can stay relevant to the younger generation."

I've never been to a live concert but nin is kind of an acquired taste. I didn't like in highschool when everyone did, but I like now. i don't think it would carry over very well live because it's very layered and sounds very different on studio headphones than even speakers.
