Sun Kil Moon's cover of Modest Mouse's "Neverending Math Equation"

Silkworm's cover of Tom Petty's "Insider"

Joel R.L. Phelp's cover of Dramarama's "Emerald City"

I love both the Ramones' original and Tom Waits' cover of "I Don't Want to Grow Up."

some of these will be new bands to me, your post and the posts of others above you, and that's AWESOME as I do look for new music to incorporate into what I consider to be the best of the best of the styles that I love.

Thankshug
