What's really impressive is how you found every shittiest version of every video with the shittiest quality sound for every one of these performances.
Haha exactly what I was thinking
©️
LOL I was thinking the same thing.
©️
Cary Rumley hahahhahaahaha
when Johnny Cash did "Hurt" he makes you feel his pain. you can hear it in his voice, this cover is one of the most powerful songs that change my view of music in a positive way.. may God rest his soul
Shystical it's so much better than the 9 inch nails version
I love both versions. Cash truly made the song his own. It's one of the rare times the cover being as good or better than the original applies.
I enjoy both, but the raw passion in the NIN version just gets me. only my opinion though
Agreed plus Trent wrote the song for a friend, cash applied the song to himself not saying both aren’t powerful in their own way but in my opinion NIN has more respect for the song than I do for cash’s version.
Cash also did this song in remembrance of his wife.
Hurt by 9 Inch Nails feels like someone going through some hard stuff at a young age and trying to figure everything out, while Cash’s version feels like a man at the end of his life who is empty trying to figure out if he’s still living. That’s how I feel about them at least.
Kurt Cobain’s singing in where did you sleep last night is haunting. Gives me chills down my spine. He has got this screaming singing voice and he is able to portray so much pain in it. Really great.
"Here's 6 songs that sound nothing like the original version, and 4 that sound nearly identical".
My point exactly. Like they found a few, got bored and just added the next four covers that came up in Google
Sean Lauper Yep That should be the title
None that sound awesome? Johnny Cash's hurt? Better than the original.
Like why wouldn’t they use crowbars version of no quarter it definately sounds different lol
@@jacobstatzer6805 Tools version is fucking identical until the ending lmao. Fucking idiots
I refuse to rank one version of "Hurt" over the other; in fact, I might be better off thinking of them as two separate songs, just because of how I see the context.
What makes both versions so lovely is the fact that they were both done by two completely different men facing two completely different times in their lives, and yet they both made it their own and found a way to make it fit.
Trent Reznor was in his late twenties, dealing with mental illness and the question of carrying on with no set result in sight, that always-frightening question of 'what now?'
Johnny Cash was at the end of his life, looking back on all the things he had done and experienced in his many years; even being as young as I am, I know what a sense of regret would probably come with that, asking yourself, 'what if...'
Somehow, that song fits both of these feelings perfectly. I guess that makes it a wonderful look into the human condition of both the young and old, that feeling of regret and shame and confusion.
Both did the best that they could possibly do with it, and I can't hold one at any higher of a regard than the other.
melancholy - my thoughts exactly dude
Well said
Trent even said it was Mr Cash's song after he recorded it
Dude......yes
I do not like Cash's version at all. Mostly due to him censoring it. He removed the "Crown of shit" line.
I'm not gonna lie, the Nirvana cover of Where Did You Sleep Last Night is my personal favorite. Kurt puts a lot of emotion into his voice during the performance and it makes it that much better for me.
John Lennon - Imagine = hope
Perfect Circle - Imagine = Desperation
Tomoni Garushia zStill a song about communism
That’s what I love about A Perfect Circle’s version. It’s like Lennon’s is the idealistic version that praises communism while APC’s version sounds very dystopian like the actuality of communism.
Johnny Guillotine getting money/resources back that were stolen from me is just called justice :)
@Johnny Guillotine You need a lesson in economics, political theory and finance, for a start. Come back when you actually know what communism is, not just the wikipedia short hand romanticized version.
everyone watching a video about music: that is beautiful
retarded: KoMmMuNiStsTtTtT
Trent cried when he heard the cover. RIP Johnny Cash Man in Black.
I think due to how relevant the song is to Cash's life Cash probably cried when he heard the original as well
In concerts after it was released, Reznor introduced it as a Johnny Cash song.
Trent cries when a leaf falls off a tree...
@@turkishdelight600 Comment of the year
He said in an interview that it was Johnny's song, and that he (Trent) was just holding it for him.
We all know that the king of covers is Leo from Frog Leap Studios
I saw this title and immediately knew "Sweet Dreams" had to be on the list
Loudwire: *Puts anthrax on a list and doesnt use the version with Joey*
Me: *Face Palms*
John Bush is a better singer imo
@@busted_dyna8580 yea but Joey belladonna is the most famous singer from Anthrax
@@heavymetal9448 agreed. But doesn't mean he's the better one.
@@busted_dyna8580 your right but Neil Turbin is the best in my opinion
Ghost doing If You Have Ghosts seems appropriate
Michael Earley true
It's on the list? So?
they suck now... popularity ruins preformances
@@nunyanunya4147 Literally shut up.
"Popularity ruins performances" what a crock of shit, A Pale Tour Named Death is a grand, ostentatious and fun exploration into debauchery.
Different from Before doesnt mean Bad, and Not Popular doesnt mean good.
@@Eric-sy1xu So very true.
The Ghost one was beautiful, and I love NIN but Johnny Cash owned “Hurt” and made it almost more dark than Reznor did...
Karl Simmering the ghost one truly was amazing.
RIP Mr Cash 😫😭😭
Agreed
Reznor actually loved Cash's cover so much he said he now thinks of it more as Cash's song than his own.
The context of JC’s _Hurt_ is so much more gripping than Reznor’s. While Reznor wrote it about his heroin addiction, not everyone can relate to it. Meanwhile, Cash’s _Hurt_ feels like he’s discussing the end of his life and his regrets. As far as I’m concerned, Reznor covered JC.
Johnny cash and kurt cobain just took those songs to a higher level. R. I. P.
Kurt Cobain had a voice like no other Ive ever heard.
At the time Johnny's cover of Hurt was recorded he was in the last months of his life and reflecting on all his mistakes, regrets, and achievements.
So it ended up turned into a powerful and stripped down ballad performed by an old man that was laying his sins bare and pleading for forgiveness
i disagree, i feel like the cover of Hurt is great but that its almost incomparable to the original. they have such different meanings.
I disagree with hurt although the cover by Johnny cash is good it doesn't much the original
I think black sabbath might be THE most influential bands ever. You can't even count all the covers. There's even a whole subgenre of music dedicated to sounding like them.
*cough* the Beatles *cough*
@@mattsian Not even close. People love to say stuff like "the beatles did things no one else did!!!" but it's really not true. The Beatles made pop music for their time that sometimes verged on pop rock. They didn't really invent anything new. Their overall influence was greatly exaggerated. Black Sabbath, on the other hand, is single-handedly responsible for the creation of literally all of metal and therefore every metal band ever made. Just a tiny difference there.
@@eyezik5743 without the Beatles there is no metal, the reason Ozzy formed a band is because he was inspired by John Lennon, even Geezer Butler were inspired by John Lennon and Paul McCartney.
@@mattsian BS. They didn't do anything special, if the Beatles didn't exist they would've drawn inspiration from somewhere else. The Beatles didn't do anything that no one else did, there would've been someone similar if they didn't exist.
@@eyezik5743 the Beatles did something no else did at that time, they invented a lot of aspects in music history, you should go watch: things that the beatles pioneered by davidbennet
Gotta say Kurts vocals for where did you sleep last night were almost haunting. That show had a lot of emotion behind it for sure anyway
I agree :(
He loved Leadbelly.
That fucker turned everything he touched to shit....
He was a fucking talentless bitch
Lol ok.. Youre jeoulsy is showing bud..
sadasdas asdasdas The gunshot heard around the world, whereas your death will go by like a tree falling in an empty forest - nobody will notice; nobody will care. Kurt achieved more in 27 years than you will during your lifetime.
Killswitch Engage's Holy Diver?
Disturbed's Sound of Silence/Land of Confusion?
Kareem Magdi sound of silence by nevermore sounds less like the original
George Mills Just listened to it! Not really my thing but it definitely sounds nothing like the original.
Kareem Magdi both of the Holy Diver songs sound similar. Disturbed's version of Sound of Silence are different, I'll give you that.
Corey Taylor's Rainbow in the Dark?
Disturbed's Midlife Crisis?
Corey taylor's rainbow in the dark sounds the same just with a different guitar tone and corey on vocals.
Midlife crisis is a good example though
WTF Pantera's Planet Caravan sounds exactly like Sabbath's original
Plus they showed a dogshit live version where Phil is clearly hammered.
@@adambrazee3858 aww cmon , don't act like you didn't know that they were always hammered on tours
Nirvanas too
I was about to mention that, but you beat me to it.
yeaah
Type O covered Paranoid, Summer Breeze, Cinnamon Girl, Highway Star and did two covers of Black Sabbath. Greatest band ever 🖤💚🖤💚🕷️🕸️
The Beatles medley too
I'm surprised All along the Watchtower isn't on here
Harris Lloyd Original by?
Bob Dylan
Harris Lloyd Okey txs i didnt know
I would like this multiple times for great truth.....
Loudwire has a long history of blasphemous omissions from their lists.
Watchtower is pretty much the ultimate cover.
Just like Paul Anka wrote "My Way", but you can't even think of it as other than a Sinatra song.
If we're doing Sabbath, Charles Bradley's version of Changes should be hear.
Overkill sounds exactly like them it's chilling
*here
@@MultiTaz333 what point in covering a song if you're going to sound exactly like the original? Put your own stamp on it.
@@-drakrats- they did.. but it's like an homage to the original but with a thrash twist
Not to be that guy, but here*
Tools cover is so beautiful that I get chills. However, I get chills from Tool anyway so.... I may be biased but if music has a power to move you, it's important to your soul.
Massive Tool fan here, freaking love their No Quarter rendition, however absolutely love the LZ original. Tool's interpretation is a truly responsible and respectful cover that rivals it's original version brilliantly.
No Quarter is the most "Tool" sounding Led Zeppelin songs.
Johnny Cash sings Hurt your soul feels his pain he's a great singer and legendary artist in my eyes
Never got that feeling, it’s seems like he’s barely even there in the video, just some old guy told to cover this song, idk though. I am a huge fan of Johnny Cash, just not this song.
I find your lack of Judas priest on here disturbing
DownFall the green manalishi with the two pronged crown.
diamonds and rust
Race with the devil
DownFall NetWork Yeah slayers cover of dissendent agressor and better by you better than me.
Sound of Silence by Disturbed
That's all I'm saying
Ghost does some amazing covers. Tobias is brilliant.
Here comes the sun is brilliant as well
Who?
I think you mean Papa Emeritus.
Or Papa Nihil.
Never heard of this Tobias asshole.
It’s a Sin is a fantastic cover. Miles above the original IMO
@@Markleadguitar While I do enjoy their version of Here Comes the Sun, it's probably my least favourite of their covers. It's a Sin, Crucified, or Missionary Man would probably be my favourites. (Yes, I like MM. Fight me. >_> )
@@Branflakes1522 I wouldn't say that, but it is great. The original and Ghost's are two different entities, entirely, both great in their own ways.
"If you have ghosts" is ten times better with Ghost and Tobias'voice.
W
Sounds a little bit radio rock to me but it’s good
Ghost should be covered some kiss or king diamond/mercyfull fate songs
nah ghost sucks ass
I know it doesn't sound too different but Killswitch Engage's version of Dio's "Holy Diver" is a shock to the system nonetheless. Honorable mention goes to Slayer's attempt at Judas Priest's "Dissident Aggressor." Sorry, but the guitar solo in this song will NEVER be covered by anyone. Period.
I heard Killswitch Engaged's version first, and I certainly like it more than Dio's
I can't say that killswitch engage's version is better but every time i hear the original i miss the screams... Plus i asked people and anyone who didn't know Dio thought that it was the same person.. Very very good cover but you can't become god..
i prefer hand of doom and born to be wild covers by slayer
KE's Holy Diver is horrible, but Slayer's DA is a significant improvement.
Johnny Cash's cover is one of my favourite covers of all time.
A few months before his death and he chooses a song completely out of his genre, and makes it his own.
You know you made a good cover when no one talks about the original version.
He blew NIN into the weeds with that version! Just frigging awesome! LITERALLY awesome!
Tyler Dokis It would even go better with the original music video for NIN’s version.
sevendust does the best cover I have heard of this songon their acoustic album....better than cash
Tyler Dokis My favourite Johnny Cash cover is If you could read my mind. It's hauntingly beautiful. Just by slowing it down.
Trent reznor said "well it's not our song anymore, johnny cash out did us"
wtf do you mean Pantera's cover sounds nothing like Planet Caravan? It's a direct cover! Wow, the voice sounds different. Well, of course it does. It's a different singer and he's not using the same vocal effects. Tbh Nirvana's Where Did You Sleep Last Night isn't too far from the original either.
Yeah.. these lists are usually a desperate attempt to get clicks..
same with antisocial and sweetdreams. yah the voice is diff but... either way its nice listening to bits of these songs
Will not listen to any Black Sabbath song covered by any one.
I agree
Brandon Wood When they had Dio replace Ozzy, they were basically doing covers? Right!? I can understand any heavy metal band covering a Black Sabbath song as homage to the gods of heavy-metal… If Taylor Swift were to cover supernaut, that’s a different story.
Black Sabbath shows up three times on the list Guess who's the OG of metal!
Led Zeppelin.
Every Type O Negative cover
Every Cradle Of Filth cover
Avatar - Something In The Way
Children Of Bodom - Aces High
Six Feet Under - TNT
Volbeat - I Only Wanna Be With You
Vader - Fight Fire With Fire
Dimmu Borgir - Burn in Hell
Cradle of Filth’s Hallowed be Thy Name cover was different than the original but it slaps
Anaal Nathrakh Powerslave and Man C&A are great and totally different
Katzenjammer's version of Land of Confusion.
i wanted to somebody finally say about avatar’s cover!
Love Cradle of Filth's Hallowed be thy name.
This entire list could just be Type O Negative covers
?Am I the only one that prefers the Johnny Cash version?
Nate Landherr me too👍
Nate Landherr Cash made it better imo
I love NIN but Cash did it so well
Nate Landherr the johnny cash version is better
When NIN played it, it was about drug addiction. For Cash's version it felt much more emotional because it became more about a man who knew he was at the end of his life.
Dude, for Type O Negative, ‘Cinnamon Girl’ is seriously different.
Oh, and I’d recommend Rob Zombie versus KC and the Sunshine band ‘I’m your boogie man’
Tobias Forge from Ghost has such an amazing voice!
I couldn't disagree more
J-dog Hollywood undead same
You can't be serious... His voice is so bland, and uninspired. Ghost is one of the most overrated bands of all time. Not to mention, people need to stop calling them a metal band. They're about as metal as Miley Cyrus.
@@ShonnDaylee they never called themselves a metal band...
@@nathanaelcaballero217 As it should be. What's your point?
the whole Unplugged by Nirvana is a brilliant live cover album
Can honestly say that is my favorite album of all time
Incesticide up there for me next to unplugged.
Its in my top 5 best of all time!
Yeah, half of their entire set is meat puppets songs!
basically all of the unplugged sessions were top notch.
Boy, Children Of Bodom covered Britney Spears. How could you miss that one?
Ignacio Maldonado I know right
A Static Lullaby's version of Toxic will always be my preferred of the two.
Ignacio Maldonado The only reason why I clicked on this video was to see if that made it onto the list.
sgtraytango yessss
oh yeah, that cover...
When Johnny Cash did this song. Trent Reznor even said that it was his song. Sad day that he passed right after.
Trent Reznor actually cried listening to Johnny Cash's version of Hurt.
In addition to this, I think Ghost's cover of "Here comes the sun" is beautifully done.
I agree
Their version of Here comes the sun is 908557883454% more satanic that any other song of the band
"it's a sin" is also great
Wait that’s a thing? Fuck imma go watch it
@@WhatsupG316 It's my summer anthem as an old-school goth. :)
All of Type O Negatives covers should of made this list.
Glad Type O Negative is on here - pretty much every cover they've done is amazing. Same goes for Ministry but not on this list; what they did with Lay Lady Lay is genius.
Ghost is out right the most original, unique, musical act to come around in the modern era, eventhough they have been around since 2006. Which I don't think most individuals realize. I've been a musician for years and their just mind blowing when it comes to originality.
Was expecting to see Type O Negatives Summer Breeze song
I wasn't expecting Vader, fuck yes !!
Indeed, the original by Seals and Crofts is vastly different.
I also thought Summer Breeze would be on this list.
Or Cinnamon Girl
There's so many songs that could be added
Can we just stop and appreciate how Sweet Dreams is perfect in both Eurythmics' and Marilyn Manson's version
*and Weezer
@@Dash7Studios No.
@Plague Doctor No
Nothing more true has ever been stated.
@Plague Doctor well then your opinion is garbage
...All this time and I never realized that "My Girl" by Nirvana was a cover song...
Mind blown.
It's called "Where Did You Sleep Last Night", even back when Leadbelly did it that's what it was called.
Leadbelly wasn't even the original.....the song is a couple hundred years old
A friend and I were listening to Devo and discovered that Turn Around wasn't by Nirvana. We'd never heard that track, because it was the B-Side to the "Whip It" single, and i don't really care for single releases. I especially don't care for Whip It. Singles tend to be the most generic songs on an album and often don't fit in with the other tracks. Whip It is no exception.
Devo’s : Satisfaction (originally performed by The Rolling Stones), is so far removed, it’s like a completely different song.
Their Workin in a Coal Mine too
I hate the fact that many people think NIN covered Johnny Cash
Maynard 0 I didn't even know Johnny cash was still alive when NIN started, but I don't know much about either of them.
I feel your pain. I had to tell an ex coworker that NIN wrote it in the 90’s, and Johnny Cash was the one who covered it. A lot of people think NIN did the cover, because they’re a younger band than Cash, and typically younger bands cover old bands.
Or that disturbed wrote sound of silence. I've even had to correct people that ffdp didn't write bad company
Bobby Quade I believe that. The reason more people believe that NIN covered Hurt than people who believe Disturbed wrote Sound Of Silence is because NIN is a younger band than Johnny Cash. I guess a lot of younger people haven’t heard the original Simon and Garfunkel tune.
I had this talk with people commenting on Super Freak by Rick James. One guy made a comment like, “I can’t believe people thought U Can’t Touch This by MC Hammer came out before Super Freak.” I told him it’s because, most likely, nobody knew who Rick James was, and have never heard the song until after they were exposed to Mc Hammer first. So, automatically, those people assumed he wrote it first until someone said, “MC Hammer sampled Super Freak.”
I was blown away by the fact that they didnt.
Peter's voice is just too unique to not be loved. God rest his soul . ❤
what the hell I would have never guessed "If you Have Ghosts" was a cover. Incredible. The original version kicks ass, too!
Was a one-off live performance, but Norah Jones doing Black Hole Sun, in Detroit, at Fox Theatre, five days after Soundgarden's final show, is just down right beautiful,. Not many covers give me chills.
Feel like I'm the only person who loves both versions of Hurt.
Sayeth Vexus nope
Funny, I feel like the only one who doesnt like Cash's cover
I love NIN, i like Cash version, its good, but NIN relly gets me ❤
I can listen to each version back to back. I usually start with NIN and go to Cash, but sometimes I will play Cash then NIN
NIИ and Cash are both great
All along the watch tower by Hendrix was far better then the original by Dylan IMO
Mike Meade Dylan drew the picture. But Hendrix coloured it in!!! It’s so much better!!!
honestly? almost any cover of bob dylan's song is better than the original ;)
Idk about that one chief
Bob Dylan some times did the Hendrix version in concert. Look that up if you do not believe.
Check out the Dave Mathews Band version I know it sounds crazy just trust me
Johnny cash's version of hurt is one of the greatest songs of all time.
Is no one going to mention Disturbed's cover of The Sound of Silence? It's one of the best covers of all-time, and entirely reimagines the song.
Ghost did a perfect cover!
Yes I like it.
EDsavant Ghost does that with any song they cover, you can't even tell that they're not an original Ghost song
Yea but if you havent heard the original you would obviously feel its an original
Divy Jain Fair enough. I heard the original before Ghost's version but only once
I used to live in an apartment with very thin walls; next door to a very amorous homosexual couple. Ghost is still the gayest thing I've ever heard.
I love Vader covers. They're just like, "Oh jahh, we makes it MORE metal"
yes their Raining Blood cover is awesome
How is Type O Negative's version of "Summer Breeze" not at the top of this list?
Or Cinnamon Girl
@@penzotoko6619. Really just every Type O cover.
archetypervb Their cover of Cinnamon Girl is probably one of my favorite covers.
Maybe because it's not a top ten list. Just a list. When is a list ever complete anyway?
archetypervb “Kenny Hickey lying on a sidewalk. Devil music from the house next door” were lyric changes rejected by Seals and Croft.
Also, Anthrax covered Joe Jackson's "Got the time", and their version was magical.
The Anthrax one was a cover?
Apparently, Joe Jackson didn't like the cover.
Children of Bodom - Oops I Did It Again, nuff said
It's even better than the original xD
and their version of Creedance 'looking out..' is amazing :-)
I so much miss Peter Steel
The Green man!
Yea I miss seeing them live
Amen
His voice was excellent, and they knew how to perform live too. "Christian Woman" is such a damn good song. They have many!
Never got a chance to see them live definitely my favorite band of all time rip to the green man
This is amazing!!! I wish it could be a series or something!?
How about Tori Amos's remake of Slayer's Raining Blood? It's VERY different, but I totally dig both versions
Or her Smells Like Teen Spirit
You guys only miss the cover made by Seether of Careless Whisper
Great cover
They both sound the same and they both SUCK
@@bozokarl the original careless whisper is amazing ...
@@tristanwalker1730 You're entitled to your opinion but my opinion is that it was just a shitty 80's pop song
@@bozokarl i see your point, maybe it been too overplayed
Even NIN thinks John Cash’s version of Hurt is better
Trent Reznor said something like "Feels like I just lost my girlfriend, because that song isn't mine anymore."
Because it is
I don't recall him ever saying it was better, just that it was his. Personally, I don't think it is, Cash is a legend, and has made many masterpieces, but his version of Hurt is no where near the original for me. Granted, Cash's is way more satisfying to play on guitar.
Reznor was moved by the video.
Lmao I thought NIN's version was the cover
0:54 this scream is amazing
Johnny just had the ability to make a cover into something special. Hurt, Rusty Cage, Thirteen, etc. The guy was amazing
Tori Amos - Raining Blood
kysonXbox This exists? It sounds... weird
kysonXbox She did a cover of Smells Like Teen Spirit. I was surprised.
Tori Amos reighning blood
Marilyn Manson - Tainted Love - Highway To Hell - I Put A Spell On You - You're So Vain
Korn - Another Brick In The Wall - One - Kindnap The Sandy Claws
Chris-O Thirteen I wouldn’t say that korns another brick in the wall sounds nothing like the original lol
Marisa Wolff: Cock, Dragon and Retro Lovin' Bitch! I wasn't referring to the Soft Cell version, the original version of Tainted Love was done by Gloria Jones, and Manson's version sounds nothing like it
You are the only person who brings up marilyn manson thank uuuuuuu
I would've thought Judas Priest's version of Johnny B Goode be on that list
I Love priests version tbh
Saw Napalm Death play Nazi Punks Fuck Off live a few years back. It was fucking awesome.
Everyone hates on Metallica but umm every cover they do sounds different... like Metallica... but different and I like that
Metallica made "whiskey in the jar" more ROCK than the original by Thin Lizzy.
@@juliegogola4647 actually first version is irish folk song
But thin lizzy made a riff
Oh YEEEAAAHHEEAAAHHH
Metallica is actually a great cover band.
Hardly anyone hates on Metallica but okay
System of a down snowblind cover is my favorite
TheGtaChuck System Of A Down can do no wrong
Diamond Lu Dickwad nah
I like their cover of The Metro better, and that sounds nothing like the original. It should've been on here.
Great list thanks
TOOL - No Quarter is my number 1 favorite cover & it will always be a masterpiece
What do you think Dio Dream On
Type O Negative did a killer version of the song Black Sabbath. I also really like Metallica's version of Bob Seger's Turn the Page and Blue Oyster Cult's version of Astronomy.
Turn the Page is one of the best covers hands down by Metallica
I so wish turn the page was on this list
Dan Maler the Metallica one is pretty good
Yeah, Turn the Page is one of my favourite covers
Bob Segers cover of Turn The Page sounds nothing like the original by Metallica.
SBeckerDTD ha
LOL
SBeckerDTD You mean Tuurrnn the paaagehhaa
SBeckerDTD this is a joke right?
PrinceJedimaster Obviously.
"Diamonds and Rust" by Joan Baez, covered by Judas Priest.
The Gits always get overlooked, but their cover of Sam Cooke’s ‘A Change Is Gonna Come’ was incredible... and VERY different from the original.
RIP Mia Zapata...
And here I was expecting Tori Amos' version of Raining Blood(yes it does exist). The only reason the Anthrax version of Anti-Social doesn't sound like Trust's is the language.
Even Kerry King had trouble to keep track of RIB when he heard her version. ua-cam.com/video/4PWgA3PI7VQ/v-deo.html
I LOVE that version.
black sabbath snowblind- system of a down snowblind?
I think the SNL cast covering Blue Oyster Cult in the "No Cowbell" sketch might have sounded more different than some of your match-ups, Loudwire.
Try The Sisters Of Mercy's cover of Dolly Parton's "Jolene."
I've been binge watching this channel for the last hour. You just got yourself a new subscriber.
Fuck that Johnny Cash version gets me every time
5:58 guy just went up on stage and started windmilling in front of Piotr 😂
Love Peter Steele !!! RIP baby. Philadelphia USA
How about:
Danzig's 13 to Johnny Cash's.
SoundGarden's Rusty Cage to Johnny Cash's.
Depeche Mode's Personal Jesus to Johnny Cash's.
U2's One to Johnny Cash's.
Tom Petty's I Wont Back Down to Johnny Cash's.
.....
All I'm saying is Johnny Cash was 'The Man in Black' for a reason. He could cover anything and make it his own.
And half of the time, it's better.
13 was actually written by Glenn for Johnny.
Shaun Dougherty speaking of The Man In Black, the Bouncing Souls did a cover of that song
Honestly, Sam Elliot’s cover of I won’t back down is my favorite.
Jacob Allen - Would that when he was playing in the Barnyard? ;)
Nirvana has covered more then one Leadbelly song as Kurt was a fan. He and a friend formed a Leadbelly tribute band called The Jury before Nirvana formed. Nirvana covered 4 of his songs, the others are They Hung Him On A Cross, Ain't It A Shame and Grey Goose.
Adam It was with Mark Lanegan from The Screaming Trees. Circa 1989. So both bands were well established, just not in the mainstream.
Best one is missing:Nevermore-The sound of Silence.Best cover I ever heared!
Was about to mention this one. It makes the original most suitably dark in a more modern dystopian feeling way. Unfortunately I've never seen a lot of love for Nevermore, they seemingly being like Marmite (folks either love or hate them, there's no middle ground) but Warrell Danes delivery was perfect for the lyrics along with the rest of the band cranking the tunes up to 11.
Where's Priest's rendition of Joan Biez' "diamonds & rust"? And how the hell could you NOT include Jimi's cover of Dylan's "watchtower"?
Stripped - Rammstein
Worst thing Rammstein have done.
Yes that's a good cover
stripped - leviathan
Check Alestorm's "Hangover".
Simone Calloni yes!
I'VE GOT AN EMPTY CUP, POUR ME SOME MORE!
Awesome profile pic! :D \m/
Phoenix Archangel Fear of the Duuuck!
I'm on a ship! If you don't know!
Some covers for this list that I really enjoy are:
Mr Crowley - Cradle of Filth
Powerslave - Testament
Crazy - Mushroomhead
(Spin me round and round) - Dope
Word Up - KoRn
Caught somewhere in time - Madina Lake
Remember Tomorrow - Metallica
Run to the Hills - Sign
Higher Ground, Rollercoaster of Love - RHCP
All along the watchtower - Jimi Hendrix
And any song from the album Renegades of Funk from RATM.
Opeth's remember tomorrow was better. Perhaps too close to the original to be included, though.
Type O Negative did amazing! I love the original of course, but the guys in Type O Negative just brought it to a phenomenal place.
The man who sold the world? David Bowie and Nirvana.
That cover sounds very similar to original
Djordje Kuzmanovic it was actually by Midge Ure (not 100℅ on the spelling)
Trevor Hindmarsh it's a Bowie song, Midge Ure covered it in the 80s long after it was written. that would be a good edition to this list though. much more different than the nirvana cover.
The Midge Ure cover is a lot closer to the original in my opinion, the Nirvana version is acoustic which makes it sound much more different.
LedAvalon I guess it's just personal opinion but the Nirvana cover is almost exactly the same, the solo plays the vocal melody that Bowie hums at the end, a different instruments doesn't make it drastically different, best version is Nirvanas electric version of the song. Love midge ure rendition on metal gear though
the ghost one was beautiful
Epic
They did a cover of the Beatles' here comes the sun

My buddies in The Whiskey Drifters do a rad version of Sabbath's "Solitude" with just an acoustic guitar and a banjo. Gives it a great bluegrass/southern gothic feel with its somber tone.
