March 18, 2025Mar 18 Author For me it absolutely has to be Bad Wolves. It's one of the best rock covers I've ever heard and the circumstances that made it happen (as depicted at the start of the music video) are quite poignant. Dario G's effort is a solid one too.
March 18, 2025Mar 18 Well those are chalk and cheese.Bad Wolves is a good cover, but I can't get past the dance cheese of Dario G, so I have gone for that.
March 18, 2025Mar 18 For sure, Dario G, one of my favourite covers. They really did a nice job with that, lovely vocal and production.
March 18, 2025Mar 18 Dario G definitely, a bit like a precursor to Jurgen Vries' Opera Song two years later really.The Bad Wolves cover of Zombie is good though very Disturbed - Sound Of Silence!There was also this crazy eurodance cover of Zombie from 1995 that made #16:A.D.A.M. feat. Amy - Zombie (Eternal Airplay Mix) Edited March 18, 2025Mar 18 by TheSnake
March 18, 2025Mar 18 Think I must have heard the 'Zombie' cover before, although I could have sworn it was another cover Disturbed did! Sounds great anyway and it gets my vote.
March 19, 2025Mar 19 Bad Wolves - and I said to Wardy he should have entered it into The Best Song Contest In The World… Ever as a great cover of a 20th Century Top 40 hit!
