what do you think are some of the best cover versions?

Bif Naked's cover of Twisted Sister's "We're not gonna take it" is really good.
Rise Against's Cover of "Anyway you want it" by Journey is one of my favourites.

and i can't forget BB's Iron Maided cover.

and All the covers that Sum 41 has done are done really really well.

BBs cover of Hallowed be thy name was so good i liked it more than the original for like a week, and then it was back to liking the original.

at the F.U.M.S show, Billy Talent sang Surrender and Dallas Green of Alexisonfire (not the screamo guy) came on and sang a bit.

they (Dallas Green & Billy Talent) should do a collab CD. it would sound really good.
