It takes balls to post that.

Hard for me to question one of my favorite artists and songs, but I also like lounge acts.
Kurt Elling: Stepping Out.

I'm a big Metallica fan but, I disagree.

I believe The Animals' House of the Rising Sun was a remake ... i'll go with that.

Nah, actually I agree. Good call.

My choice: Judas Priest's cover of "Diamonds and Rust" by Joan Baez.

I like Van Halen's cover of Dancin in the street better than the original.

Ryan Adams - Wonderwall

How has no one mentioned this one yet? I can't stand Oasis or the original!

Probably because the most of us disagree with you. At least I do.

I'm surprised some smart arse hasn't come up here saying Led Zeppelin 1 and 2.

There are tons of Grateful Dead covers, I can think of one where they killed it on Strawberry Fields.

Dead are one of those bands that play other folks music so often and so well that I used to think they were all GD songs. El Paso is a great one of theirs.

Kate Bush- Woman's work Original

At one time I had not even heard of Kate Bush.

And my submission:

Fleetwood Mac's "Little Lies" by Ari Hest

Much more soulfull and meaningful to me.

And as much as I feel that Kate Bush is a Goddess that cannot be improved upon, The Future Head's version of "Running Up That Hill" is pretty damn good.
