Covers - It's What Makes My World Go Round

So with the summer concert season in full swing, concerts are at a premium. Anyone who has ever been to a concert will usually experience a rare but cool phenomenon, the cover song. A cover song, when in the right hands can be a magical moment on stage for both band and audience. I still remember the first time I heard a cover at a concert. It was at a Danger Danger show ( right now everyone is scratching their head saying "Who is Danger Danger"?) They did a cover of Journeys "Anyway You Want It", they really did the song right. To this day, I will almost always play that song in a band setting because of that night.

So I put up 2 covers that I thought really work for me. The first is "Barracuda". This song when done by Heart is unstoppable. They can always bring down the house when they play it. Here we have Alice In Chains with Gretchen Wilson preforming the cover. She does probably the best version of this song vocally that I have ever heard.

Next we have Nickleback doing ZZ Top "Sharp Dressed Man". All I can say is Chad Is the man. He pulls it off brilliantly.

So, With that being said, are there any covers you have heard that you think are great? Post up.
