Cover up!

[Vort]

Last Kiss covered by Pearl Jam

Surprisingly good.

[Vort]

Not better than the original, but

of Led Zeppelin's "Hey, Hey, What Can I Do?" is outstanding. Darius Rucker has the perfect voice to sing Zeppelin, especially this song.

[Vort]

Speaking of Zeppelin covers, here's a pretty good one of "

", one of the top five best-ever Zeppelin songs. Patrick Monahan is no Robert Plant, but he does a good job here.

[Vort]

Oh, and before I forget! Kelly Sweet did a hauntingly beautiful, really amazing cover of ONE STINKING HALF of Aerosmith's best-ever song, "

". Why she didn't finish the song, I will never know, but the second half would have been even more beautiful and touching than the first. Whoever arranged that song for her deserves a handshake for the part of the song he actually did and a beating for not finishing the job.

Last Kiss covered by Pearl Jam

I really liked it when they first released it, but I don't like it anymore.

I love Peter Hollens and almost everything he does.

Here's one of my favorites which is way better than the Taylor Swift version.

(Peter and Evynne Hollens)

And finally one of my favorite. I think its even better than Andrea Bocelli/Celine Dion:

I forgot this one:

[JohnnyRudick]

lulz what's with all the hate on Imagine? MJK's version is one of my favorite songs

Not sure about the others but for me,

much of what John Lennon seemed to be espousing most of his life of notoriety is

Against most of what the Church stands for.

This song is an anthem of that philosophy.

This is NOT one of my favorite set of lyrics.

The music, I love it.

But the song, not so much.

The starting point of what I am talking about is in bold.

You can jump in to it from there.

(John Lennon's philosophy. He was named correctly by his parents for sure.)

Imagine

John Lennon

Imagine there's no countries

It isn't hard to do

Nothing to kill or die for

And no religion, too

Imagine all the people

Living life in peace

You, you may say

I'm a dreamer

But I'm not the only one

I hope someday you will join us

And the world will be as one

Imagine no possessions

I wonder if you can

No need for greed or hunger

A brotherhood of man

Imagine all the people

Sharing all the world

You, you may say I'm a dreamer

But I'm not the only one

I hope someday you will join us

And the world will live as one

I can't believe that I'm admitting to this, but I prefer the creepy Marilyn Manson version of Sweet Dreams over the Eurythmic's version. And, less embarrassingly, I prefer Seether's Careless Whisper over the original by Wham!

[dahlia]

'Rock Me, Amadeus,' by Megaherz.

[JohnnyRudick]

I like Billy Swans version of Hank Williams' Wedding Bells.

And I prefer just about all of Ronnie McDowell's covers of Elvis Presley songs.

[Wingnut]

And, less embarrassingly, I prefer Seether's Careless Whisper over the original by Wham!

It's been a long time since I've listened to that. I don't know that I like it better than the original, but I do like it a lot. It's nice and moody.

Limpbizkits cover of "behind Blue Eyes"

[Aworkinprogress]

Prefer Faith Hill-"Take a little piece of my heart!" to Janis Joplin
