Howdy.
It seems that the Music industry got a hobby to sing other band's songs(Been seeing too many covers lately...) So.... whats ur fav covers ? Very Happy

Mine:

Yngwie Malmsteen - Gimme! Gimme! Gimme! (Abba Cover)
At Vance - The Winner Takes It All (Abba Cover)
Blind Guardian - Mr. Sandman (Like some 1940's band Cover)
Vision Divine - Final Countdown (Europe Cover, No one can sing it better than Europe tho...) / Take On Me (A-HA Cover)
Rob Rock - Eagle (Abba Cover)

About Hitman: Movie (2007)
Vin Diesel is a hardcore gamer, and absolutely loves the Hitman series. For that reason I have faith that he wont destroy the movie.

Response: Well, Uwe Boll probably loved the Alone in the Dark games.

lol, at first i thought you were talking about the actual covers of the albums Wink, but i got it in time before making a fool out of me by posting pics Very Happy

anyhow, i don't like covers at all, i think it is just a smart marketing instrument to make some quick cash, not very creative.

the cover of Snoop's Gin and Juice by The Gourds -- kinda bluegrass I guess.

Angel of Death - Orig: Slayer, Cover: Cradle of Filth
Hell Awaits - Orig: Slayer, Cover: Cradle of Filth
Black Metal - Orig: Venom, Cover: Cradle of Filth
