I don't care for any covers and feel it's a slap in the face of the original singers !

To me it's just ripping the people off to sale a new sound, why can't they do their own thing ? Yea so you are going to say they are doing their own thing, no they are styling a song to capitalize on it !

Never enjoyed hearing other's doing others songs, when I pay to listen to someone I want to listen to what they
do, or write not what's already been done 10 different ways already !

I once spent over 2 hours listening to "Whiskey in the Jar" covers on YouTube. The song is from Ireland and dates back to around 1650 and has been covered many thousands of times. I first heard Metallica's cover.



Metallica covered Thin Lizzy's version.



A lot of the more traditional Irish versions are very good too.





I saw the Killdares play "Whiskey in the Jar" around 20 years ago at the Dayton Celtic Festival.

Nope. Still prefer Dylan's version. Although that no name kid at the end wasn't terrible.

The original is okay..



I love the Broken Peach Cover of "This is Halloween". Broken Peach does a lot of very good covers. The woman on the left is hot and moves great.

Just like any other music, some are great and some are terrible. Most is a matter of preference I guess. Also, a lot of what we consider “original” versions aren’t original at all.
Motorhead had a lot of really good cover songs, many were quite a stray from their normal type of music.
And surprisingly enough, I really like some of Marlyn Mansons cover songs. Though I don’t like his normal music.

One of the best cover bands I have listened to is Lexington Lab Band. They cover a lot of 70's and 80's.

Most every song any of us have ever heard is a cover. You just don't realize it. Almost all hymns, Christmas Carols, patriotic songs and all other music was written and sung by someone else other than the people we first heard it sung by. Look at the credits on the records, tapes and CDs you own. Imitation is the purest form of flattery.
