Hard to pick only three, but here goes:

I love this:



Not that I hate this one, more that I find it very funny (there's a sabbath theme forming in this thread):



And a guilty pleasure:

I'm a little taken aback that not one, but two of you listed Cake as a 'guilty pleasure' and not a 'love'

I love Cake they rock and the war pigs cover is awesome. Most people don't know this but "perhaps perhaps perhaps" is a cover too. Who ever posted the CoC cover rules btw!

To admit to loving what's originally a disco anthem (we're not talking War Pigs just in case that wasn't clear)... so much for any hard earned cred... safe to go in the column under Guilty Pleasures.

I don't believe in guilty pleasures. Cake is awesome.

Thus ends my entirely declarative post.

Yes, Cake is awesome... disco anthems... one must be cautious.

Who cares if something was a disco anthem first? You don't have to quantify your taste by saying you feel guilty. Why should you feel guilty about liking a song? If you like a thing, then like it. It's just music, it's not like you're admitting you like to make babies cry or anything. Real cred comes from not caring what people think anyway.

(And that's why I don't believe in guilty pleasures.  8) )

Rest assured my tongue has been buried firmly in cheek.
Take care!

Another great cover. Grails doing a cover of 'Satori III' by Flower Travellin' Band. Awesome video too.

I wouldn't say I'm embarrassed at all to like Cake or that song. I list it as a guilty pleasure more so because of how different it is from the original. I imagine the guys from Sabbath didn't have that vibe in mind when they wrote the song and would be a bit put off if I told them I liked it more than their version!

Dave, I was mostly just thinking out loud about the concept of "guilty pleasures", though in hindsight I can see that it looks like I was ranting at you. Apologies! I think you're rad and I hope we're cool.

davent

No problem at all, i sometimes leave myself open to misinterpretation- on purpose and not, the devil on my right shoulder.

In any case, thing's always cool at Madbean's!

also, David Kitt does a pretty amazing bunch of covers on his album, Red and Black song book:
(can't go wrong with a bit of Thin Lizzy anyway).


or the beatles (love the textural guitar freakout that builds over the last 2/3rds of the song)


His cover of toot's and the maytals "pressure drop" is pretty special too. I haven't actually listened to this in an age, which is why i got all excited and posted a bunch of vids :p
