Get This Party Started- Stretch Armstrong

Who did it originally?

Pink hahahaha

Oh! No wonder you didn't want to say!

They also do a great cover of MELT WITH YOU

http://www.myspace.com/stretcharmstrong111

and even Counting Crows, and NWA's Express Yourself

"Melt with You" is probably my favorite 80's pop song ever!

"space trucking" - Vengeance Rising

And who did it originally?

I'm going with either Deliverance's cover of DA's "Sanctuary" or Fearful Symmetry's cover of DA's "William Blake"...

I think Children of Bodom's cover of Opps I Did It Again (Britney Spears) is brilliant



EDIT: why wont it let me call troggy a moron?

Trouble's Breathe has a cover of Donovan within it... and it is splendid!

Down below the Ocean!

and we must not forget their splendid cover of Cream's Tales of Brave Ulysses

on THE SKULL re-issue dvd bonus they also do more fun covers

Totally! Awesome cover!

I didn't know that! I have to pick those re-issues up sometime! Problem is, I already have the original Metal Blade versions, so it doesn't feel so urgent, but the info you just provided bumps it up a notch!

And, keeping with the theme:

"Children of the Grave" by TROUBLE (from the R.I.P. live bootleg)



(orig. by Black Sabbath on the Master of Reality album)

I'm gonna post one that I've actually listened to today...

"The Ripper" by MERCYFUL FATE

It's the Troggish anti-defamatory software at work. It won't let you slag me!

(j/k - actually, the emoticons get tempermental sometimes. Try hotlinking to the image in the list to the left instead of typing in the code or clicking on the image. That usually works for me.)

It's on the album "the sound of perseverance" so finding it won't be that hard I was surprised at how high Chuck could scream.

Nobody's Fault But Mine and Snow Blind by The 77s

I recon that if Todd Pope was to cover a Britney Spears song it woudl be awesome... oh wait.. hasn't he already done that, but made me promise not to tell? :p


Nah, if I remember right was it the band Dangiz666 or somethign who recorded it?

Hit Me Baby One More time - IV (that's pronounced FOUR)...originally recorded by: Britney Spears

and that cover tune was a one time thing we did at a live gig, I had fun playing bass and doing backup vocals on that song that night.

"Snowblind" by SABBATH?!? If so, I must hear it!

Into the Void - Exhorder (originally recorded by: Black Sabbath)

this has got to be, hands down, the best thrash version of "Into the Void" that I'v eever heard.

Awesome cover from VOIVOD's Nothingface album in 1989 which was probably the only thing musically that saved me at that time from utterly losing it amongst the claustrophobic clusterf**k known as "hair metal"...



They also did another excellent cover of FLOYD's "The Nile Song" on their album The Outer Limits ! But I'm sure you've already heard that one too, right Somby?
