new placebo album soon + new single next week including a very odd choice of a b-side: daddy cool by boney m! i can't think of any other cover version recently that freaked me out more. its just...wrong! or perhaps 'i just don't know what to do with myself' by the white stripes, although i quite liked that one. anyone know of any other rather strange cover versions? |

Well Tori Amos did cover Raining Blood by Slayer. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
and she did 98 bonnie and clyde by eminem |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
she did a whole album of odd covers, i thought enjoy the silence by depeche mode was a weird one |

Firestarter - Jimmy Eat World |

i thought it was wierd that marilyn manson AND foo fighters covered down in the park seperately |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
PJ Harvey's cover of "monkey gone to heaven" was pretty strange. and not that good. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Therapy?'s cover of Husker Du's 'Diane' is very different (all strings) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
foo fighters doing baker street was genius, almost better than the original |
||||||||

REM "I will Survive" ... Stipey even forgets the words half way through... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

hehe, dave grohl did that with stairway to heaven. the audience sing it for him, then he scats the solo (i think) |

I really like Mansons cover of Down in the Park!!! :) Toris covers are great. :) I really like the album; its actually my least favorite of hers (mainly because she didnt write the songs so theres not as much of an emotional connection for me!) but I do love the album. Even her Eminem cover is great. :) She owns that song, baby! She also did a cover of leonard cohens Famous Blue Raincoat. She once tried to do a live cover of "I Will Always Love You", but a little bit into it, she admitted, "I dont know this fucking song." hah. :) |

I like Placebos cover of Depeche Modes "I Feel You" :) Its good! Ive heard a Cure cover of (I believe) World in my Eyes--its not good. ;) |
||||||||

Ahem...Squarepusher...Joy Division..."Love Will Tear Us Apart"...whispered vocals...wtf? :\ |

||||||||

do it again/get around and entersandman, both by transformer di roberto off of criminal '02 |
||||||||
|

Bluh, I didnt like that cover at all. My boyfriend was delighted and said, "Oh wow! Squarepushers voie is great!!!!!!!! Wow!!!!!" and I was like "...pfftt?!?!?" 0_o' |

Some new band covered Street Spirit by Radiohead, needless to say it was pretty atrocious.. It turned what was a beautiful, fragile little song into an intense wailing session. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I liked Jenkinson's singing too. the soft singing combined with the cymbals works really well. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Coil's version of 'Tainted Love' is essential! (nothing to do with Manson's crappy one...) i love NIN - Dead Souls too, one of my favorite NIN songs - though i haven't heard the original and it is not that "strange"... |
||||||||
|

a few covers that have made me wanna wrench... liberty x - high and dry (radiohead) the vines - ms jackson (outkast) coldplay - sk8r boi, baby one more time (avril campino + britney spears) saint etienne - im too sexy (right said fred) oxide and neutrino - no good (prodigy) |

WOW... the original version of "Daddy Cool" is Fuckin Awesome... For some reason I thought it was from the 70s and not 99. I had the Placebo version for about a month and started getting into it, but sound quality was shit. The Us never gets good songs like this. I've downloaded every version of this song including the Latin Mix, which is pretty good. |

Dead can Dance doing Sinead OConners " I am stretched at your grave"...its CHIILINGLY GOOD |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
it is from the 70s |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

also just remembered: from donnie darko: gary jules - mad world. roland orzabal was recently asked about this and he said he thought is was excellent. he also liked disturbed's version of shout, which i also love. |

the get up kids doing "on with the show" (did 'the cure' do that?) is good |
||||||||
|

The Kovenant did a metal version of Babylon Zoo's 'Spaceman' |
||||||||
|
|

A really funny cover was Devo's cover of Head Like A Hole. If you haven't heard it you should. Very odd, and funny. It's not something I'm going to listen on a regular basis though. |
||||||||

HUGE improvement on the original |
