Best Cover song(s)

[Viva Las Espuelas]

the other thread about "mad world" made me make this thread. plus, i'm bored at work

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

War Pigs by Faith No More - in my opinion, way way better than the original.
Little Wing by Stevie Ray Vaughan - again, way way way better than the original
these are some that come to mind


A tune I wish a band would cover is God of Thunder(KISS) done by Type O Negative. Now that would be greatness
