Dream cover versions

dmx - tindersticks my sister

the verve - polvo's bombs that fall from your eyes

daft punk - bad girl's bad girl

guns'n'roses - razorcuts' sorry to embarrass you

manic street preachers - slowdive's slowdive

the ramones - autechre's hub

shed seven - stereolab's percolator

tindersticks - krome & time's sound is for the underground

Limp Bizkit - "(Get it On) Bang a Gong" That's entertainment.

The Dismemberment Plan - "Losing My Religion" or anything by the Talking Heads.

Spacemen3 covering Iggy and the Stooges

Stereolab covering Neu!

The Jesus and Mary Chain covering the Ronettes

Any Elephant 6 band covering the Beach Boys

The Dandy Warhols covering the Brian Jonestown Massacre...

Erm... wait...

For starters how about....

'Asleep and Dreaming' as a Hear'say Xmas number 1 'Reno Dakota' as a Daft Punk b-side 'I don't believe in the sun' - Emma Bunton 'Fido your leash is too long' - Madonna 'A pretty girl is like...' - Westlife 'Epitaph for my heart' - Robbie Williams 'I shatter' - Gomez attempting a comeback single 'Lets Pretend we're bunny rabbits' - S Club 7

Momus would do a rather good take on the 'Sticks' "Patchwork", I think.

They'd take it and make it TOTALLY tuneless.

so very tired

Maybe Anal Cunt ... they're from Massachusetts, too.

Anyway - I can't believe that this is ANOTHER chance to mention

LLOYD COLE singing 'IF YOU DON'T CRY'

- does a tape exist at the bottom of Claudia G's filing cabinets?

andrew wk doing avril lavigne's 'girlfriend'

I want to hear Bruce Springsteen & the E Street Band cover 40 Miles by East River Pipe very badly for some reason.

Dear Yellow Magic Orchestra,
i would love to hear your coverversion of the song Slippin' into Daylight by Blue Rondo a'la Turk. It may be an old song, but so are you.

Thank you very much.

I don’t know if this sounds crazy but

Nina Simone covering “the boom boom bap” by Scritti Politti

Nice choice/combination.

From a technical point, this is even possible (Vocal Synthesis).
But it would never be the real thing tho. At some point it's 'picking over the bones'.

Saxon doing Winwood's "Higher Love"

they did a helluva good "Ride Like the Wind". but i think they could fuck with the tempo on this one, and every cover of the song is always so wispy folk version where the chorus is all falsettoed

would also kill for a synth-new wave version of Iron Maiden's "Children of the Damned". does one exist?

> a synth-new wave version of Iron Maiden's "Children of the Damned". does one exist?

No, just some unrelated Gabber & Hiphop.

I’m pretty sure there’s a whole electro Iron Maiden tribute album, gimme a sec

lol here it is:

no “children of the damned”, though

would love to hear the troggs do "can't find the time" — no horn arrangement, more stripped down with just languid, menacing guitars and primal drumming and reg presley delivering the lyrics with his trademark snarl, i think it would sound cool

or maybe even in the style of "love is all around"

Louis Armstrong doing Easy Like Sunday Morning

Elvis Costello doing Napalm Death "You Suffer"

Slower, in three four time

JD Beck & DOMi doing Clock DVA - dark encounter (with Bill Burr for the vocal part)

a french-language cover of mungo jerry's "in the summertime," where serge gainsbourg just recites a french translation of the lyrics over the original instrumental track

I dreamed last night that I was listening to a really beautiful Dolly Parton cover of Jackson Browne's "Before the Deluge," and now I'm sad I'll never get to hear it for real.

Hearing the Lemon Twigs cover This Whole World has made me want to hear the Rubinoos do it.

I would like to hear Desmond Dekker covering 'Dandy' by the Kinks. Think.it would work great as a rocksteady song
