If any of you are kids of the 90's and remember Animaniacs growing up, the voice actor for Wakko Warner fronts a rock band that does interesting covers:

Was migrating music from my iphone to samsung and came across a few more...

GnR does Dylan...

Here's the Raign version of this song that I mentioned in the very first post. Very different from Dylan, Clapton or GnR. Personally I don't care much for the GnR version. There's something about Axl Rose's voice that I find annoying on ballads.

Not true covers, but I like both these remakes a lot...

"Old Man" by Redlight King... original obviously from Neil Young.


and "Hey DJ" by Lighter Shade of Brown, original by World's Famous Supreme Team.

Some of my favorite covers:

Hurt by Johnny Cash
Sunday Bloody Sunday by Pillar
Boys of Summer by The Ataris
Too Cold by Vanilla Ice (okay, not a favorite, but a wannabe hard rock version of Ice, Ice Baby is worth mentioning for those who haven’t heard it).
I do enjoy the cover of Zombie by Bad Wolves
Heroes by The Wallflowers (love the ending to The Replacements)


I’m sure I have more, but off the top of my head, that’s what I have.

Damn how could I forget about the ataris or hurt .the ataris were great , and although I like Reznor’s original better , Hurt is a great cover .

All the gals in that band have rhythm...
It's a very diverse and inclusive group right there.
