I often watch Dave Grohl's cover of "Tiny Dancer" on the Craig Kilborne show on YouTube. It's not even that great, hah, but there is something about it that I love.0 -
Whiskey In the Jar - Metallica
45 - Shinedown
There was also one that Pearl Jam covered but now I can't remember the name! It was a song from the 50's I believe about a young couple who's car stalled on railroad tracks and got hit by the train. The girl died.
Last Kiss - good call
Yes! THANK YOU! It's been driving me nuts...0 -
