    Music The Cover Song Thread

    Post songs that you liked that you heard done as a cover version. I just heard this one today....I love The Pretty Reckless, probably my favorite band right now and they did an awesome live acoustic cover of the Fiona Apple song Criminal.

    Perhaps the only covers of Beatles songs I've ever liked





    I am fixed

Sometimes I wake up and feel like I cannot face the day. But someday I'll wake up and realize that waking up is pretty stupid because it just makes you feel like crap."

    I never thought Avril was that great of a singer....I do like the music in this one, much better than the typical Kesha synth sound

    The original was in the fifties - J Frank Wilson and the Cavaliers. Learn the chords and the chicks will dig you. I was really drunk once and a friend asked me to join him onstage. I played this and my friend hated me for stealing his thunder!

    Fookin great cover of an underrated Beatle tune. Again, hellishly fun to play if you have guitar ability.

    Sticking with Aerosmith, they cover "Them (featuring Van Morrison)" Didn't know that Steven Tyler blew the harp so well.

    The ultimate cover that surpasses the original, IMHO....I think of my father and the tears flow.
