Like The Sisters of Mercy doing Jolene, a cover should be different to the original. Otherwise what is the point of doing it?

tungsten.  wonderful stuff i have a small ingot of it as a mega paperweight.  it's nearly twice the weight of lead for the same volume (and almost identical density to gold).

My lads into Disturbed in a big way and is always trying to get me to listen to them  :-\
Looks like his is going to get his way  ::)

Not a fan of covers but that goes down as one of the best i've heard in many years  :y

If you fancy a different version of Leader Of The Pack, have a listen to Twisted Sisters version  :y
You might be surprised  ;)

Bloody Hell.....that brings back some memories  ;D

Apart from the Division Bell, I find them really dull.

I don`t like the early stuff, a bit too psychedelic for me but I like Echoes and most after that, Division Bell being their best album.

The only good thing about Pink Floyd was Dave Gilmour. As a former teacher, I couldn't be expected to approve of "We don't need no edukashun"!

Could have been, I know it was some pop cover, I just remember that they killed it.

  While on the subject of covers, Mettalicas version of "Whiskey in the jar" is how that track should have been origionaly. Makes Lizzys version sound like a pub band
