 heh, she probably doesn't even know who Bob Dylan is... she
 didn't even know who David Bowie was up until just a little
 while ago... come on... EVERONE knows who David Bowie is...
 and definitely most musicians, especially ones like Avril
 who are "arty and creative" and quote unquote "write" their
 own songs... *sarcasm*

 | the good covers: 
 i love the covers of "sunshine," (john denver!) "the man on
 the silver mountain," (rainbow) and "blue moon" (big star)
 by his name is alive.
 
 "life is life" (opus) and "geburt einer nation" (queen) by
 laibach.
 
 "golden hair" (syd barrett) by slowdive.
 
 "lucifer sam" (pink floyd) by love and rockets.
 
 "strange brew" (cream) by severed heads
 
 "map ref 41?n 93?w" (wire) by my bloody valentine
 
 the kraftwerk covers by the balanescu quartet (string
 quartet arrangements!) and senor coconut (latin style!) are
 largely great.  as is "neonlicht" by mitja v.s.
 
 "crazy for you" (slowdive) by ulrich schnauss.
 
 "sunshine superman" (donovan) by mel torme.
 
 "(i can't get no) satisfaction" (rolling stones) by devo
 
 "do you wanna dance?" (???) by the ramones
 
 "drugs" (talking heads) by this mortal coil
 
 the all-time classic cover, "all along the watchtower" (bob
 dylan) by jimi hendrix.
 
 there are many i'm forgetting...
 
 some of the worst:
 
 "no fun" (the stooges) by the orb.
 
 "i want to hold your hand" (beatles) by the new christy
 minstrels (wretched beyond belief, no hyperbole is
 sufficient)
 
 "popcorn" (hot butter) by caustic window is surprisingly
 pedestrian.
 
 there are of course many terrible beatles covers, i've also
 got "purple haze" (jimi hendrix) done by an incompetent
 japanese psych-rock band, sammy davis jr doing the "theme
 from shaft" (isaac hayes) etc etc etc.

 | my friends were watching MTV, and Papa Roach did a GOD-AWFULLY terrible cover of Nirvana's Lithium. Jehezus
 Christ! I think you guys have named most of the worst ones
 in existence though! :-D
 I also, personally, don't enjoy Dynamite Hack's cover of
 "Boyz in the Hood" by NWA.
 
 So here's some good overlooked ones:
 "Have A Cigar" - Pink Floyd - covered by Primus (FUCKING
 awesome!)
 "Hurt" - Nine Inch Nails - covered by Johnny Cash (i think
 it's good, so did Reznor)
 
 Fiona Apple also had an unbelievably GREAT cover of "across
 the universe (nothing's gonna change my world.)"
