I'm not sure how to post videos and I can't from here, but I DO like Metallica's version of "Turn the Page" (original by Bob Seger) and Pearl Jam's version of "Last Kiss" (forget who did the original).

Also if I might add in sometihng that serves as a very fond memory.........

In 1990 my family was in Florida and we stopped to visit my grandmother's best friend (now deceased). The radio was on (she let my brother and I pick a stattion) and David Lee Roth's version of "Just a Giolo" came on and Angie started singning along. My brother and I were shocked, and she told us of course she knew the song, it was from her time and that wasn't the original singer (DLR).

A fond memory of her...................

I have a feeling there are probably ones I love more than these, but I would place the following quite high.


YouTube - Eva Cassidy - Tall Trees In Georgia (Live) - Originally Buffy Sainte-Marie.


YouTube - 03 Cold cold heart - Norah Jones - Originally Hank Williams Sr.


YouTube - At Last-Etta James - Originally Glenn Miller Orchestra, not sure of first singer, and many don't know hers is a cover.
