O/T Best Cover Songs

Tue Jun 25, 2013 11:58 am

i like a good cover song. There's been 1 or 2 good uns on Radio 1's live lounge, but are there any gems out there you like. My top 3: Whiskey in the Jar - Metallica. Feeling Good - Muse. All Along the Watchtower - Jimi Hendrix

Although I love Oasis, their version is just too long and drawn out. I get bored by the 3rd minute

Only thing I don't like about it is the length. The first 3 minutes are class, it just drags out from there. The Jake Bugg version is just under 3 minutes and its in his own style.
