limp bizkit sucks and you fail. The Who's version was way better
oh and jimi did a better cover of "like a rolling stone" by bob dylan

Almost all Ten Masked Men covers are better than the originals.

I love it :)

It's actually done by the band Norther.

dead skin mask - Dark Funeral originally by slayer

The Less then Jake cover of the song Surrender

Fall Out Boy's cover of Roxanne by The Police. More upbeat that the original.

NOFX does loads of covers and they're usually pretty great.
Reel Big Fish- Take On Me
Rage Against The Machine- Renegades of Funk
Primus- YYZ (They cover the intro on their first release, it's great.)

I like The Police but I just enjoyed the FOB version more.

I totally regret YouTubing that. You know when you have a child hood memory which contains an old song, then someone covers it and it absolutely ruins the memory.

It's like that.

I strongly disagre with that, plus the original had a cool music video.

Whats wrong with Fall Out Boy?

Definately Alien Ant Farm's version of Smooth Criminal, originally by MJ.

Cat Scratch Fever by Pantera, originally by Ted Nugent.

The song Land Of Confusion was originally done by Oasis, but the version by Disturbed was better

What's not wrong with fall out boy.
Also I never heard of that cover so I'm actually gonna look it up.

I think they are a good band

Actually it was Genesis, not Oasis. Disturbed's version was better.

Theyre lyrics don't appeal to me at all, in fact, I am annoyed by them. In the music I don't really hear anything special, it's basically rock chords. Also the style of singing makes me think of them actual emo bands (I know FOB isnt the worst) which I don't like.

Then again, two of their cover songs that I've heard. (The Police - Roxanne and Tim Burton/Danny Elfman's Nightmare before Christmas - What's This) are indeed pretty neat.

Theyre not as bad as I stated above, but I still don't like em.

MSI - Tom Sawyer

Karma Police - Easy Star All Starts (originally by Radiohead)

rammstien-- stripped (depech mode)
pearl jam-- last kiss(jay frank wilson)
marilyn manson-- personal jesus(depeche mode)
danzig-- hand of doom(black sabboth)
pantera--planet caravan(black sabboth)
mike patton--hit me baby one more time(britany spears)

there are always great cover songs done but not all of them are better than the original.

If that exists I'll fucking shoot myself.

No Use for a Names Fields of Athenry. I dont know who the original is by, but i like it better then the drop kick murphys version.

Hurt - Johnny Cash (Nine Inch Nails)
Knockin' On Heavens Door - Guns N' Roses (Bob Dylan)
Mad World - Gary Jules (Tears For Fears)
You Really Got Me - Van Halen (The Kinks)
All Along The Watch Tower - Jimi Hendrix (Bob Dylan)
Working Class Hero - Green Day (John Lennon)***

*** = I know I'm going to get alot of shit for this one but the original is just to monotone for me. Green Day didn't do very much to it creatively speaking but the added distortion and more uptempo singing and drums do alot for the song in my opinion. I like it more then John's very basic hardly even singing version.

Reel Big Fish's cover of Kiss Me Deadly

Kneel to The Cross - Agalloch orginally by Sol Invictus, Agalloch's vocals are just so much better than Tony Wakeford.

Another cover by Fall Out Boy I liked is their take on Love Will Tear Us Apart by Joy Division.
