Songs Opeth should cover

[Jim LotFP]

Deep Purple- Perfect Strangers
Comus- Drip Drip (I mean come on, why haven't they?)

 

[Arnold Layne]

They should not cover perfect strangers, that song sucks. How about child in time?

 

[Kenneth R.]

We had a thread like this several months ago and I'm gonna post the same.

It's oh so quiet - Björk.

And you and I - Yes.

ladies and gentlemen, we have a winner.

excellent choices.

?

hahahah fuckin balky and larry. i always thought of that too, when i hear the title.

i'd be pretty badass if they covered a Morbid Angel song.

 

[shantideva]

although i dig bjork, it's about the last thing in the world i'd want to hear Opeth cover. let's see.... a song i would like to hear with the warmer tones and better vocals Opeth would provide? considering how well 'Remember Tomorrow' turned out:

Nevermore- The Sanity Assassin
Iced Earth- Burnt Offerings
and some old school Entombed...

 

[Kenneth R.]

metal covers of metal are so unoriginal. i still think Luz had the best suggestions.

mix it up people...

 

[Nuk3m]

Bjork.....?

She is a testament to the fact that most women shouldnt bother with music and just stay in the fucken kitchen.

Well in this case anyways.

most of the time when i hear bands really stretch to do covers it comes across gimmicky and thin to me. opeth do metal pretty fucking well. i don't really need to hear them screw around in a bunch of other genres to keep my attention.

if they are going to go outgenre, i want to hear them cover:

Frank Zappa- Catholic Girls
Aphex Twin- Milkman
Mike Patton and DEP- When Good Dogs Do Bad Things

...because that shit has got to end up interesting.

 

[Smilari]

Comus - Drip Drip

camel - white rider

+1

Mike Patton and DEP- When Good Dogs Do Bad Things

uhhh, i def. like the band, and that EP is great, but..dude, opeth cover dillinger? that's just absurd. totally absurd.

 

[The Dude]

They should cover Gwen Stefani.
"AIN'T NO HOLLABACK GGIIIIIIIIIRRRRRRRRLLLLUH!!!"

 

[Melinda's Lover]

Britney Spears - Hit Me Baby One More Time

 

[Nuk3m]

The Village People - YMCA

 

[R0l0]

Sabbath Bloody Sabbath. with growling on the "where can you run to...what more can you do" verse

 

[BRI]

The Village People - YMCA

Macho Man would've been a better choice

 

[Nuk3m]

Macho Man would've been a better choice

NO! they could do the YMCA movements on stage! that would make it a whole lot better :hotjump:

 

[Saber Rider]

Starless - King Crimson

Holy shit, that would rule.

Guns 'n Roses - November Rain

 

[Melinda's Lover]

Sabbath Bloody Sabbath. with growling on the "where can you run to...what more can you do" verse

I like that idea.

 

[saut]

They should cover Gwen Stefani.
"AIN'T NO HOLLABACK GGIIIIIIIIIRRRRRRRRLLLLUH!!!"

I would pay good money to hear Mike do death vocals for the "B A N A N A S" part. That would rule.
