I don't know what it is but I like to see what kind of spin somebody gives to another person's song. From The White Stripes with Jolene to Richard Cheese with Rape Me I just come back for more. Anybody have a cover they like? Here's one to kick it off... a wtf moment for me the first time I heard it but it's grown on me. Besides, it's the seed of Zappa. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0mCzkDunEac

And this, this, is the most beautiful rendition of any Elder Scrolls music i've ever heard. Edited by lol_pc, May 4 2012, 03:31 AM.

One of my favorite Led Zepp tunes! Yeah, that was a pretty sweet cover. I always prefered the crowbar version though. So sludgey...
