Best Cover/Remix Ever.Music

[arvore]

Two of my favourite Beatles Covers:

 

[glassjaw]

Not a huge Nirvana fan, but can't deny this is the best cover I've ever heard.



And of course RHCP's cover of Higher Ground.



My favorite version of a song that's been remixed a million times.

 

[Northstar]

I think Gn'R has some of the best covers ever.

Sympathy for the Devil
Original: Rolling Stones


Live & Let Die
Original: Paul McCartney


Knockin' On Heavens Door
Original: Bob Dylan

 

[Aldo]

Best mash-up I have heard in a loooong time! 👍

 

[ADTR]

dig in that, some really awesome beats for parties. Great remix/mashups/covers + they're all quite easy to download.

 

[arvore]

[Omnis]

Not the best cover ever, but a neat remix of The Cult's song:

 

[Talon]

Disturbed - Land of Confusion, originally by Genesis

Disturbed - I Still Haven't Found What I'm looking For, originally by U2

Sether - Careless Whisper, originally by George Michael. ()

All of these went from songs I couldn't listen to, to songs that I really enjoy. 👍

 

[TheBook]

My two favorites are:


Celldweller-"Tragedy", originally by the Bee Gees (apparently it is possible to make a Bee Gees song sound good )


Jimi Hendrix-"All Along the Watchtower", originally by Bob Dylan

I always loved the remixes to this song.

Original:


My favorite remix of them all:

 

[nk4e]

Santana and Rob Thomas

 

[rrsupercharged]

Eventhough im not really much of a fan of most of his songs,Hurt by Johnny Cash gets my vote for best of cover of a song.

[Caz]

Rrsupercharged: cash did an absoljtely fantastic job with hurt. That entire album is full of great covers.


Currently my favorite covers are:
Puscifer : Rocketman ( rocketmantastic)
Playing for change: gimme shelter
Playing for change: redemption song
Playing for change: imagine

The basis behind playing for change is amazing. Every musician was recorded in a different part of he world. None of them ever met before doing he songs.

Sorry cant post links from my phone.

There are far too many to mention, as I'm a really keen music lover and bedroom DJ I know of far too many to add here, but some personal highlights for me are as follows:

• 30 Seconds To Mars - Stronger
  (A truly stunning rendition, which can chill the spine in the latter half of the track. This is a remake of that god-awful Kanye West,"cashing in on the shirt tails of Daft Punk's success" track.)
  
• Orkidea - Unity
  (The original is by Dead Can Dance - The Host of Seraphim. Orkidea's version builds on the great foundations that DCD's original presents and escalates into a hard-driving trancer that was a firm favourite with Paul Oakenfold back in the day)
  
• Bjork - Pagan Poetry (Infusion Remix)
  (An all time favourite. The thing about this remix is,,, well, just about everything! It's a breakbeat builder, heavilly laden with trance, that actually makes Bjork's cooky voice seem perfect. Whilst the original has all the elements of the remix, the addition of the pitch, beat and bassline make this version an ultimate.
  Infusion aren't very well known, and most people who hear this version automatically think it's by Hybrid, down to the lengthy breakbeat intro sequence and the rolling basslines.)

Special mentions also for U2's Even Better (Perfecto Remix) and Delerium's Silence (Tiesto Remix)
