hmmm, well its more the memory of this cover that makes me happy. rainy sunday stuck inside and stoned out of our minds. i was throwing marshmallows at the GF as she tried to play along with this on her melodica. could have been any song really but it was a cover of Jackson Browne's "these days" THAT was an awesome day. It'd be my groundhog day choice.




also saw a Red Hot Chili Peppers cover of Brandy by Looking Glass, that was pretty cool.

"Muse - Feeling Good" is a great cover!

I personally hate covers,seeing that the originals are usually better.That being said,my favorite is Stone Temple Pilots cover of Led Zeppelin's Dancin' Days.
