Sorry, ffoeg. Can i take that you wouldn't want me to post miley cyrus covering nirvana?

 

[DCLane]

I like that, Richard!

But if anyone posts another hallelujah i'll be forced to retaliate with Celine Dion's ACDC..

Go on then; Allison Crowe's version - live from 2006. Different and good. Don't believe me? Read the quotes - and it's still regularly played on Canadian TV;

Damn, you beat me to it. The best cover of all time. Bar none.

I quite like this Moby cover of Joy Divisions's New Dawn Fades.

Please, please, please, please don't.

To help restore the balance, I feel I have to post this ... ...

I'm ashamed to say I quite like The Killers' cover of Joy Divsion's Shadowplay too.

BTW, for 1974, it's a pretty amazing recording.

Any excuse for this version of (I think) a George Jones original...
And I like the direspectful ones of serious types...

others include the beatles doing smokey's you really gotta hold on me, elevator's baby blue (but accountant pete normally posts that) and oooh, I'll have a think...
