Almost every cover version that James Taylor has done,especially 'Handyman' and 'How sweet it is',but definitely NOT 'Day Tripper'!He did not get that one right. :oops:

the Melvins do incredible versions of Flipper tunes, Youth of America, The Green Manalishi and etc.

their versions of Lexicon Devil is far better then the Germs original...

I rather like the meddly of early pop songs on The Carpenter's "Now & Then" album. The whole album never ceases to raise my mood.

Wow.

That's like the most beautiful girl in the world, in a yellow dress, smiling - nay laughing, in a cornfield.

It's f**k**g gorgeous.
