Best cover (song)

[Vagabond142]

Since we have lots of "best" threads going, I haven't seen one for really good cover songs (or fun ones, for that matter). So, I'm starting one.

It can be dedicated cover bands, one-off covers, or just fun covers. Only rule is that it CANNOT be the original artist.


I'll start off with two:

Nightwish - High Hopes (Cover of Pink Floyd) Live
Gkg88Mw5xJw


Northern Kings - Take On Me (Cover of A-Ha)

For "All Along The Watchtower," I really like the cover one of my favorites did of it at Bob Dylan's 30th anniversary concert:

Neil Young - All Along The Watchtower
2_tJnj2j5kI

It's one of those songs that, no matter who covers it or how it's covered, it always comes off really well :D

Chris: That cover was HILARIOUS o_O Hillbillies doing rap XD
