redux - songs beautifully interpretated by another artist

[Yoga Face]

a beautiful Mick Jagger song

 

[explorerzip]

This song has been covered a million times, but KD Lang's is by far the best.

 

[shack]

Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds doing their version of an old classic, Stagger Lee.

 

[Insidious Von]

I wouldn't call beautiful but Rage Against The Machine's cover of Bruce Springsteen's The Ghost of Tom Joad is very powerful. A fitting tribute to John Steinbeck and the anger within The Grapes of Wrath.

 

[Yoga Face]

traditional American folk song which dates back to at least the 1870s


black girl, black girl , where will you go
I'm going where the cold wind blows

In the pines, in the pines
Where the sun don't ever shine
I would shiver the whole night through

Her husband, was a hard working man
Just about a mile from here
His head was found in a driving wheel
But his body never was found


black girl, black girl, where will you go
I'm going where the cold wind blows

In the pines, in the pines
Where the sun don't ever shine
I would shiver the whole night through

I love Gary Jewell's cover of Tears for Fears' 'Mad World';

And I'm shocked this thread doesn't include Johnny Cash's stunning take on Nine Inch Nails' 'Hurt';

For something different I like watching the O'Keefe Music Foundation. It's a bunch of teenagers doing covers of bands like Meatloaf,Tool,Ozzie and more. They seem pretty dedicated.
