    THIS IS NOT A ****ING OPEN DEBATE.


    I said... Best Cover Song Ever.


    Not... Best Cover Song Ever?


    Besides, my extensive BBS memory tells me there was already a thread like that (most likely started and/or dominated by Manny Ramirez)

    Dave Matthew's Band has covered The Beatles' In My Life. I thought that was pretty cool. I can't think of any right now though.

    Hmm...

    I thought that was cool too.

    I've always liked Natalie Merchants cover of "Because the Night".

    Dynamite Hack - boyz in the hood


    Hootie did an AWESOME cover of "Losing My Religion" live that I saw. It was definitely one of the better covers I've heard.

    There's an old b&w film/video clip of the Beach Boys playing "Do You wanna Dance?" with Al Jardine singing. Unfortunately another guy sings on their audio recordings of that song.
