I already did it so that you don't have to.
You can get the fuck out of here with that bullshit. Cash was good but not Reznor good. And before you say anything, I'm saying this. Yes I am saying your opinion is not valid as you clearly don't understand genius.
I'd say the Type O Negative redo of Cinnamon Girl trumps the original. Seriously. Fuck Neil Young.

And I love the Meat Puppets, but if you think that song sounds good...then...yea...don't know what to say. LOL
I have that album and love every other song on it, but that song is atrocious.

Gloriously atrocious. Pretty much true for every cover on that Unplugged record, actually.

Jwar you cray. Annie Lennox is fucking awesome. I do agree that the Manson version of Sweet Dreams is really good - just not better than the original
Modernage - I hate Travis in all possible ways, but I've always dug that version of Hit me Baby.

It almost has you convinced that it might actually be a good song...... but then you quickly regain your senses. haha.

Then you listen to Why Does it Always Rain on Me and you start thinking "damn, that Britney tune really
was a good song".
