Is that the same same "Harvest Moon" that Concrete Blonde did?

there is a male country singer that does a version of Allison Krause's - When You Say Nothing At All, way to ruin a great song redneck

Hate - Behind Blue Eyes...Limp Bizkit
He doesn't butcher the song, BUT he just sings it, no feeling, no ANGER, No nothing, he's just making noise because he likes to hear himself.
Thats the one that irks me the most, constantly,
Hate - The Last Kiss...Pearl Jam
There has never been a more horrible friggin noise then this, worse then Fingernails on a chalk board.
Somebody should shove them in burlap sacks along with a few rocks and take a drive down to the lake and putthem out of our misery.
Thers more, but them two really bug me

Along with the aforementioned FNM's 'Easy', their cover of the Bee Gee's 'I Started A Joke' is quite excellent.

I also enjoy Manfred Mann's cover of Bruce Springsteen's 'Blinded By The Light' (and hate Springsteen's original version).

Like- Van Halens' cover of "You Really Got Me"

Dislike- Marilyn Mansons' cover of "Sweet Dreams" or anything Manson for that matter.

Oh yeah...Van Halen's in....I can't say I like it better than the Kinks version but it's pretty good. The Kinks were into heavy before there was such a thing.

Metallica's version of "Muskrat Love" also kicks the lama's behind...

Good question Lefty. Off the top of my head I'll say Social Distortions version of "Ring Of Fire". Might not be my fav. though.

Also like Metallica's version of "Green Hills"
