Deep Purple's "Hush" indeed. Kula Shaker gives it a new intense energy with a more modern update without straying too far from the original. They simply make it better.

Very very cool. I just thought of another to add to my previous list.

 

Gypsy Kings - Hotel California

 

As prominently featured in the classic film "The Big Lebowski."

Well, the general awesomeness of said movie doesn't exactly work against the cover. >_<

Guided by Voices - Glad Girls

 

I know, I know, "they were so much better when they were avant-garde and low-fi blah blah blah." Well, this song is way too catchy and poppy to be properly "indie," but I dig it anyway.

 

BONUS: They're from Ohio!

Currently listening to ' I heard it through the grapevine' by CCR. Up next ( well in another seven minutes, that is, go stoner solo!!!) is 'burn one down' by Ben Harper.

No, the best cover ever would either be "Hush" done by Kula Shaker or "Let's Spend the Night Together" done by David Bowie.

 

 

As in Deep Purple's "Hush?" If so, I'm gonna have to check that out. Although I do hate the Mick Jagger/David Bowie "Dancing in the Streets."

 

My nominees for best cover ever:

Afghan Whigs - Lost in the Supermarket (Clash)

Creedence Clearwater Revival - I Put a Spell on You (Screamin' Jay Hawkins)

Stevie Ray Vaughan - Little Wing (Hendrix)

Johnny Cash - Hurt (NIN)

Johnny Cash - I Hung My Head (Sting)

Ben Folds - Bitches Ain't Sh*t (Dre/Snoop)

Dynamite Hack - Boyz in the Hood (Eazy-E)

The Byrds - Mr. Tambourine Man (Dylan)

Audioslave - Seven Nation Army (White Stripes)

 

Probably omitting some great ones, but these are the ones that jump to mind.

 

M. Ward does a cover of Bowie's "Let's Dance" that is teh pwn.

I'll have to look it up.

 

I can't believe that in a discussion that has hit upon both David Bowie and great covers that I failed to mention Bowie's fantastic cover of the Velvet Underground's "I'm Waiting for the Man."

:lol:"

Some people stand in darkness. Afraid to step into the light.

Some people need to help somebody when the edge of surrender is in sight.Don't you worry, it's going to be all right.

 

Cause I'm always there. I won't let you out of my sight.

I'll be there never you fear. I'll be there forever and always.

I'm always here.

One billion b-balls dribbling simultaneously throughout the galaxy. One trillion b-balls being slam dunked through a hoop throughout the galaxy. I can feel every single b-ball that has ever existed at my fingertips. I can feel their collective knowledge channeling through my viens. Every jumpshot, every rebound and three-pointer, every layup, dunk, and free throw. I am there.
