Faith No More could do what the hell they liked.

And they often did.

See, I liked this. It was different which is far far better than any new crap that is exactly the same as the original!

Muse - Feeling Good, is a good cover.

Bad covers however, hmmmmm. Most of the crappy pop songs that are about. A1 - 'Take On Me' rings a bell however.

I hated the Scissor Sisters version of Comfortably Numb when I first heard it but I quite like it now....
