What are your favorite metal song covers?
(lemmy.world)
Seether - Careless Whisper
I know and like that song because of Seether.
Was going to post this if I didn't see it in the comments. Glad it was already there. Such a great cover
Maybe more metal-adjacent, but amazing: Everytime We Touch - Electric Callboy
The video for Pump It is also amazing
Okay I don't really like Cradle of Filth but my husband does. But I really really like their cover of Iron Maiden's "Hallowed Be Thy Name." Somehow the cover has more energy than the original.
If that floats your boat, give Fear of the Dark by Graveworm a listen. Iron Maiden lends itself really well to dark metal.
Rainbow in the dark by Corey Taylor and The Last In Line by Tenacious D. A lot of songs in that Dio tribute album's pretty good.
Yeah that Tenacious D cover is so good. The Halestorm cover on that same album is also a banger. Halestorm in general does great covers, I love their cover of Ride the Lightning
Sonata Arctica - You Are The Wind Beneath My Wings
Riders in the sky by Dezperadoz
Painkiller by Death
No remorse by Cannibal Corpse
Blind Guardian's cover of Dream A Little Dream Of Me
Similarly Blind Guardian's cover of Mr Sandman
This cover of Gangnam Style is one I've always enjoyed.
Halocene's cover of Unholy is pretty good as well.
Artas - Gangsta's Paradise
Dan Vasc - Toss a Coin to your Witcher
Sweet Dreams and Tainted Love by Marilyn Manson
Most songs by Leo are pretty good
I particularly like Unholy from him.

Type O Negative - Summer Breeze. Particularly poignant after Peter's passing.
Rising force by hammerfall
Unstoppable - Red, original by Sia
Vivaldi Djent - Roma Ivakov
