So I'm sitting here at work trying really hard not to do......well work and I was thinking about how much I love Pearl Jam's cover of Fuckin' Up by Uncle Neil. Just wondering what your favorite cover is? P.S. Trying to create small talk by not doing actual work. :D

    I saw John Fogerty in Mansfield back in 2005 and it was amazing. He opened for John Mellencamp. Then they both came out and did Green River and Rain on the Scarecrow together.

    Sonic Reducer. Faithful to the original but still has the PJ style full-on.

    It's either that one or "I Got You."

    I gotta say favorite PJ cover is Crown of Thorns.

    WORST cover ever has to go to GNR with Knockin on Heaven' Door. Axl ruins that song with his gaudy vocals. Just awful...
    I smile, but who am I kidding...

    Hahaha, fantastic cover, listened to that forever when Benaroya Hall came out.

    My favorite cover probably has to be Love Reign O'er Me, with the orchestra and everything. It's just so well done, it's one of the few covers of any bands that I actually like more than the original version.

    They really do great covers. But I think "Sonic Reducer" from Atlanta '94 will always be my favorite. The "It's OK" tag on "Daughter" is a very, very close second.

    Related: Listening to 92.3 in NY today. DJ played "Love Reign O'er Me" from The Who, and I was thinking it'd be cool if he followed it up with PJ. On comes "Elderly Woman..." Awesome.
