Soooo many crappy ones about, and yet I have ideas that seem like a match made in heaven.

Every time I hear I Need You Tonight by INXS, it's screaming out for NIN to do a cover of it. It would be perfection. :love:

Anyone else got any perfect cover version ideas??

I've always thought that Arnold Schwarzenegger should do a cover album like William Shatner :D

Exactly.

I'd love to hear him sing this http://www.azlyrics.com/lyrics/katiemelua/ninemillionbicycles.html

It would be so much better than the original (not hard though)

Hurt by johnny Cash is a great cover version.

I'd like Trent Reznor to cover "Angry White Snail" by Cathal Coughlan :laugh:

Speaking of Johnny Cash. Rusty Cage was a great cover :)

Fantastic idea.

Without that Shatner album, thousands of '100 Worst Ever...' clips shows would have had five minutes to fill.

But still. Common people is still worth a laugh :p

I"m glad people agree with my Schwarzenegger idea :p

I love the ersatz roccoco reworking by The Divine Comedy of 'No One Knows' originally done by Queens of the Stone Age.

Not quite a cover version but it should be, is that new one by the Hoosiers, which sounds EXACTLY like Mr Blue Sky by ELO!

Oh..I want the Chili Peppers to do JIMI Hendrix's 'Voodoo Child'

That'd be pretty cool. Good one.

Hit Me Baby One More Time by Travis is pretty good.
David Bowies Heroes by Oasis finally did the song some justice
Live and Let Die well, we only need to mention Mr McCartney himself to realise that other people did that one better.

Cover versions?

All Saints version of 'Under the Bridge' gives me nightmares, however I think that MUSE's version of 'Felling Good' is one of the more successful covers and their version is probably heard more often now than any other. http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=cIRkP2hkT1A

I'd second that, their versions of Fire and Crosstown traffic are excellent.

I'm generally not one for covers myself, so I cant think of anything.

The Pipettes would make a good go of Hey Mickey, I think, although it wouldn't be too different to the original.
I'd like to hear someone make a new version of Duchess by the Stranglers - I think that Carl Barat has the voice for it. There are also a few folky-type female singers around who should really have a go at some of the Wicker Man soundtrack.
