A friend of mine was at a barbecue not too long ago, and he heard a dance version of Betterman by, Sash, (a euro pop DJ). He told me it was awful, and quite frankly i am not surprised. Apparently it was a demo of some kind and was never released, thank f*ck.

However, i was wondering if anyone knew of any other covers of PJ songs, and if they were any good.

    Aaron Lewis of Staind covered "Black" at a live event a while back. I wasn't impressed.

    It's like when I heard Jamie Cullan (jazzy/pop singer. Rubbish!) cover a Jeff Buckley song. I mean, you can't cover a Jeff Buckley song when jeff sung sooo beautiful and Cullan's voice is just ordinary. Anyway, some covers are just not neccessary.

    Yeah, it's not that Aaron is horrible. I like his voice, but Black is my favorite song of all time....and Eddie being my favorite singer just doesn't give Aaron a chance.
