Not a favourite song, but here's an example of where the cover is far better than the original

I really don't like Papa Roach. So can't argue that. But I hate Falling in Reverse. The singer is a major dick and hated by most people in the industry due to the fact that he's a dick and ruins tours.

It does remind me though, when Last Resort (the original version) became famous, they released a radio edit of it that cut out everything. It cut out the swearing, but also cut out any mention of harm or suicide. And considering that the song it about hurting yourself and contemplating suicide, it was just lots of dead air.

It basically went:

"... My life into.... This is my last resort... No... Don't give a... Cover...."

Who likes the Song
I stand alone.
By Godsmack

I won't hijack this thread with all my covers.
But here is a guitar cover I did of that song.
Love how heavy sounding it is.
Not very hard to play
But a lot of fun.

Hope you enjoy....

Not a fan of Godsmack, but I have a drumstick signed by them. Saw them at a festival and a few acts later in the mosh, I slipped on something and fell over. When I reached down to grab the object, it was a signed Godsmack drum stick. So I kept it.

Leo does some really good covers.

Another group that I forgot about that does excellent covers is Brass Against. They occasionally have different singers, but the main singer (Sophie) is famous for two things. She almost won one of those terrible singing reality TV shows, and she pissed on a guy on stage.

Good singer though.

Thought I killed this thread with the worst cover ever.

Guess you guys are gluttons for punishment.

Take that.

That's really cool that you have that.
I'm not a huge Godsmack fan either to be honest.
But I do like I Stand Alone.
I probably like half a dozen songs of theirs.
Most of their stuff it pretty generic and boring.
