Joy Division- Shadowplay


The Killers- Shadowplay



the killers did a good cover and made it danceable, but it can't hold a candle to the orignal.

I know there are more, but I'm only going with these 3.

The cover of Losing Touch With My Mind(Spacemen 3) by The Icarus Line is probably one of my favorite songs....here you decide which version is better
Losing Touch With My Mind (Spacemen 3)- The Icarus Line

That Motley Crue cover of Anarchy is hillariously bad.

And the Flinstones one is just. :laughing:

Oh and that Radiohead cover of The Headmaster Ritual is pretty ace, thats just might be my favorite Smiths song.

Radiohead covered New Order and Joy Division also and did damn good jobs.

I prefer the original. I don't tire of songs very easly, regardless of how much they are overplayed, a great song is always a great song IMO.

But man I really loved how he did the solo with the horn section, thats pretty cool.

Zappa <3
