Top Ten Unexpectedly Good Cover Songs
Cover songs from artists you weren't expecting at all but they actually manage to pull it off, how often does that happen?The Top Ten
1 Thunderstruck - 2Cellos (AC/DC)
Two guys with cellos, and what do you think they'll be performing? AC/DC's Thunderstruck of course!
2 Sound of Silence - Disturbed (Simon & Garfunkel)
3 Jolene - The White Stripes (Dolly Parton)
Dolly Parton song with a garage rock tune? Check it out yourself.
4 Rolling In the Deep - Linkin Park (Adele)
Back when they performed it, they've already mellowed up quite a bit but I don't think anyone saw this coming.
5 Hazy Shade of Winter - The Bangles (Simon & Garfunkel)
Another Simon & Garfunkel entry and a head-banging one at that. Wait what?!
6 Surfin' USA - Blind Guardian (The Beach Boys)
A power metal band covering a The Beach Boys' song, well, that's normal, I guess...
7 Landslide - The Smashing Pumpkins (Fleetwood Mac)
They often play it live on concerts. Now they wouldn't do that if it weren't good, right?
8 Master of Puppets - Sum 41 (Metallica)
What would you expect when a pop punk band goes thrash other than a disaster? I know it's not the best of covers but they actually managed to pull it off!
9 The End - Nico (The Doors)
10 Last Nite - Adele (The Strokes)
The Contenders
11 Nothing Else Matters - Tori Amos (Metallica)
