I was thinking today about all of the different covers the band plays and which one was my favorite. I tried to pick songs that the band plays on a regular basis and is more than an instrumental. Comment if you choose one that isn't listed.

    Crown Of Thorns
    I'm surprised by the lack of RITFW. I guess they play it so often, it hardly seems like a cover anymore. No offense to NY.

    Disregard. I see there are only three responses thus far.
    I know I was born and I know that I'll die. The in between is mine.

    Love Fuckin' Up. Not just the PJ version, just love the song. probably because I am constantly asking myself the same thing! LOL

    Cracker did a great cover of it as a b-side to Euro-Trash Girl.

    I can't choose. Can you change the "favorite" part to something else???? :smiley:

    Maybe the one we haven't heard live yet..? Never mind that's just as hard to choose!
    Oh please let it rain today.

    Love Reign is so good. I could've easily picked Crown or Fuckin Up too. Or Real Me or Baba or Ahhhh fuck they do covers so well most of the time!

    All Along The Watchtower
    Sonic Reducer is actually my most favorite. Why isn't this one on the list if I may ask? They played it as much as All Along The Watchtower.

    The Real Me
    I think the Real Me is my favorite. The VH1 version is so ridiculously good, it's sick. But the pure joy of Baba when you are at a show is hard to beat. Even a great bootleg version doesn't do justice to the communal nature of the song.

    Just an additional statement: If 'Crown of Thorns' is a cover then I guess 'Hunger Strike" is too.

    I wish there were more than 10 choices! I forgot Mother, Sonic Reducer, and Crazy Mary. I just went through the song list and gathered up a list and narrowed it down to 10. I should start a second poll with all of the songs I left out!

    They "kill" it alright. But I think you and I are using "kill" in different terms. I don't like Eddie's vocals on it. And I didn't like his vocals on that Comfortably Numb cover he did with Waters either.
