Not too different from the original but I really like it

[Angrist]

Covering Eric Clapton's Promises. The song starts around 0:50 btw.

Edit: in case you wonder, that's not Dutch, but Norwegian.

I'm a fan of the Limp Bizkit cover of Sanitarium by Metallica. I don't know why, I just really, really like it - more than the original, even.

I can't give that my seal of approval =/. But then I'm a huge Metallica fan...have been since I was in like 3rd grade. Cliff Burton could single handedly destroy Limp Bizkit. I'm a huge Primus fan too, and I still much prefer Metallica's version to this:



While we are on the subject of Les Claypool, the Fearless Flying Frog Brigade does a hauntingly good cover of Pigs (Three Different Ones):





I shouldn't have to tell you all that it's a Pink Floyd cover.

also....

(I've been told it's actually dutch? And no...it's not Rammstein.)

[Angrist]

Haha that is Dutch indeed. Same artist as 'French Erotic Film'.

Here's the full version:




Also try his cover of 'In The Navy'.

Hopefully this is right or sounds okay since I found this while I was in class but this cover of Alice in Chains is awesome.

How about horrible covers? 1:42 into the trailer for what appears to be a really dumb movie is a really bad cover of a classic Beatles song. Why would they do that?
