Toadies cover of Blondie's "Heart of Glass".
Cracker's cover of "Loser" by the Grateful Dead.
Kula Shaker covering Deep Purple's "Hush".If hope can grow from dirt like me, it can be done. - EV0 -
Toadies do an awesome version of heart of glass. Seen them play it 2-3 times. They added their own unique musical twist to it. It really is awesome. I do like the original by Blondie as well.dudeman said:Toadies cover of Blondie's "Heart of Glass".

I am a big fan of Nirvana, and they do some AWESOME covers (Lovebuzz), but when i heard CHARLES BRADLEY & THE MENAHAN STREET BAND cover "Stay Away".... Well, give it a chance:

If I exclude PJ cover songs, my fav would be Spiderbait's Black Betty.

I love this cover!!! Don't necessarily think it's better than the original, but it is definitely one of my favorite Santana collaborations...
