Okay so most bands today cover at least ONE SONG.

So the question remains, if you were in a band, what song or songs would you cover?


I'd love to cover the following:

One -Metallica
Fade to Black -Metallica
Dyers Eve -Metallica (It is my life long goal to drum to this song)
The Day That Never COmes -Metallica
Floods -Pantera
Cemetary Gates -Pantera

I got a lot more...but what are some of yours?
My Buizel is not amused with your foolishness.

I'd appreciate any reviews on my fic.

Green Machine by Kyuss is an early pick.
If we go real far back in musical time, I'd probably have to say something like...Who Are The Brain Police? by Frank Zappa and the Mothers of Invention.
Kill The Poor, California Uber Alles...all possible picks.

I don't use "uber" Pokemon, I don't calculate stat values,
I don't breed my way to perfection, and I don't care about
natures. I catch my Pokemon the way they are, and treat them
like individuals instead of brainless drones. If you use this
philosophy, copy & paste this into your signature.

  • "The First Time" by Loser
  • "The Battle of Monte Cassino" by Michael Giacchino
  • "Hammer Head" by Racjin-Radix

If I was in a band, I'd cover songs like Paint it Black by The Rolling Stones, crushcrushcrush by Paramore, and various Beatles songs because they just own the world.

It's been long but we can do it; let's make this our dream

Look to tomorrow because it's all we have. Turn up the music until the walls shake. What do we have?
Is it hope? Love? Is it nothing at all? We won't know at all until we make something of what we feel.
When that happens, we'll find the truth. We'll find what we want. And we will find ourselves, finally.

Above your average run-of-the-mill.

In my former band Anti-Product (short-lived 4 piece band, 5 months) we covered Alice in Chains' Rain When I Die I did the vocals justice. 'Good For You' by Third Eye Blind was our first, I played lead guitar and it was so fun, so perfectionist, it killed!
and before we split, we were in the process of doing a cover of 3 Libras by A Perfect Circle, for which I supplied rhythm guitars.

Currently, I plan on working alone.
Lo, primitive earthlings. I am coming for your planet.

Fear not, this signature will be incredibly radiant in the near future ...

Until then, fatten yourself

Well... I'm sure if I was in a band band, it would be poppy. And if I were singing it would be pop country cause of my voice. XD;
But maybe Misery Business by Paramore, 4ever-The Veronicas, well any of the Veronica's songs... and maybe Love Song by Taylor Swift. I dunno. Never really thought about it.

Remember the way I was, for me.
