View Full Version : TOP 5 COVER SONGS OF ALL TIME...
Sorry guys, I'm in a top 5 kind of mood.
1. "All along the watchtower" - Hendrix
2. "Mrs. Robinson" - Lemonheads
3. "Knockin on Heaven's door" - Guns n Roses
4. "Hard Rains gonna fall" - Edie Brickell and the New Bohemians
5. "Anarchy in the UK" - Megadeth
higher ground - red hot chili peppers
the passenger - siouxie and the banshees
crazy - rem
hazy shade of winter - bangles
blue monday - orgy
walk this way - run dmc
i will survive - cake
sweet jane - cowboy junkies
This is a tough one. A lot of my favorite music is riddled with standards and covers. And here I am in a cover band. Dammit.
So five universal cover songs:
mustang sally - by God this will never go away.
Let's get it on - everyone needs a soulful slow cover song, and this one is overplayed but still good.
Similarly, Sex Machine by James Brown gets done a lot more than you'd figure.
Brick House - because band guys like to see girls' butts.
Free Bird - you can't be in the south and white without playing this at some time, and I didn't have much white music on the list.
