RaiderHaters Revenge 3,566 Posted July 26, 2017 Disturbed Sounds of Silence better than S&G Johnny Cash and NIN -Dirt, man thats the hardest cover to decide on, I lean Johnny Cash prob in minority, but Limp Biskit, Behind Blue Eyes, was better than The Who version Shinedown Simple Man, very close, but better than Skynard, which is sacrilege Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I love both, but I saw NIN perform it live, my favorite song I have ever heard live. Behind Blue Eyes is one of the all time greats. Have to side with The Who. Agree on Sound of Silence Agree on Simple Man Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
patweisers44 697 Posted July 26, 2017 Jesus...another Disturbed cover that people are gonna shiot themselves over? That cover of Sound of Silence was crap. Because a band covers a song by legendary artists doesn't make it good. Van Halen covered some Motown tunes on Diver Down and it was some of the worst crap they ever put on a record.

I get it opinions aren't allowed by the left I grew up listening to the Who, Zepp, PF, Skynard, all that stuff, I can recognize a good cover when I hear it. If I hear something I like I can't help it, if it sounds good thats what matters to me Chris Cornell made Billy Jean listenable as well Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
