[Music] 10 years of Cover versions that absolutely SPANK the originals .......... over to you

[Guinness Boy]

Doesn't so much spank the original as compliments it.

 

[Guinness Boy]

And a couple of unexpected styles...

 

[Guinness Boy]

yummy

*SPANK*

We have a winner.

 

[Tarpon]

Like a lot of covers this works best if you know the original so I guess it can't be said to really spank it but pretty special nonetheless

 

[boik]

Are the Weddoes the best covers band in the world? Must be up there!

 

[Robdinho]

Neil Young is very coverable

Indeed he is

 

[Mancgull]

Sorry, but just 'no'!

How about the Hendrix version of Cream's 'Sunshine of Your Love'

 

[Norman Potting]

Alien Ant Farm's Smooth Criminal is 100 times better than by Michael Jackson.


PLUS


Mad World from Donnie Darko (Gary Jules) over the Tears for Fears original.

Agree with the first one and in a similar heavy rock style

 

[MissGull]

Bastille - Rhythm of the night is awesome.

 

[Soulman]

The Empress of Soul. Gladys Knight with her version of Boys 11 Men's version of End Of The Road.

 

[Soulman]

Ben L'Oncle Soul with a decent Bob Marley cover.

 

[Acker79]

Israel Kamakawiwoʻole's version of 'Somewhere over the rainbow'

We've just had a scoot through far too many of the pages in this thread, and are most taken by stato's suggestions. This has been missing:

And, just for a laugh, why not this, especially the first 90 seconds or so, which is quite simply epic:

I wish I could use swear words on here to articulate my joy.

A friend and I were arrested in London for wearing T shirts .......... He had an Inspiral Carpets one on, I had a Big Black one on. I was marginally cooler than ****.
