Oh, great call !!! (I'll rep you when I can!)
He really has a fantastic voice, and I forgot all about this in the credits (or maybe I even missed it!).
This is right up there with My ****** Valentine's fine cover of it...

...and as far as I know, there hasn't been a thread like this so far.
Good idea!

Violator79
Take a Hit, Spunker!
That's not a cover. That song's been around for a long time and people think Thin Lizzy made it, but they did their own version of it. So Metallica's version of the song likewise is not a cover, since no one knows how originally wrote the song.
Metallica- Turn The Page

Well technically its a cover then, as it wasn't originally written by Thin Lizzy, Metallica, The Dubliner's etc. I think it dates back to 17th century.
Cool.
Not heard MBV's version. Very good! Then again its hard to fuck up such a classic song!!

A song like Metallica's Turn The Page is a full blown cover, since we know Bob Seger made it. As for ******* In The Jar, it is NOT a cover, since no one knows who physically wrote the song. Every person or band that records ******* In The Jar is not making a cover, but their own version of it. If Bob Dylan wrote ******* In The Jar and Metallica remade it, then they would be covering Dylan's version. Understand now? Thank you.
Tori Amos' slow, odd, creepy version of Raining *****

Torn & Frayed.
Metallicas' version sounds a lot like Thin Lizzys' um,interpretation,it's just sped up slightly with heavier guitars.....
.....and it's better.
So basically,Metallica covered Thin Lizzys' cover of the song.
:rofl: :thumbsup:

Although I disagree about which is better, Lizzy's version rules!! Not really a big fan of Lars & co's version.
The Dubliners probably did the definitive version

A real singalong ******** song! :glugglug:
Marlo Manson
Hello Sexy girl how your Toes doing?
Rage against the Machine ~ the Ghost of Tom Joad (originally done by Bruce Springsteen)
Ratm's version is better than Bruce Springsteen's version IMHO!
Rage against the Machine did several great covers on a CD called *Renegades*
Marilyn Manson ~ Surrender (originally done by Cheap Trick)
Deftones ~ Simple Man (originally done by Lynyrd Skynyrd)
Yeah yeah yeahs ~ Diamond Sea (originally done by Sonic Youth)
Fiona Apple ~ Across the Universe (originally done by The Beatles)
All of these songs have become some of my favorites!:bowdown::hatsoff:
