I was listening to the Johnny Cash cover of Hurt from Nine Inch Nails and it’s very good. Got me to thinking about my favorite cover tunes…

  • The Cure: Hello I Love You (Doors)
  • U2: Dancing Barefoot (P Smith)
  • The Cure: Purple Haze (Hendrix)
  • Lily Allen (w/Mick Jones): Straight to Hell (Clash)
  • Johnny Cash: Hurt (NIN)

I’m sure there are some that I’m forgetting. Anyone else got fav cover tunes?
