Deftones - No Ordinary Love

-The original has a kickin' guitar solo.

'Course there are way too many more to list, y'know like War Pigs, Sweet Dreams, 99 Red Baloons, and Tom Sawyer. But most people know those ones anyway. Also both Machine Head and Leatherface did wicked versions of The Police's "Message in a Bottle" but both seemed unavailable.

And "Rio" by Goldfinger, though the Barenaked Ladies version sucks. The original Duran Duran is cool, though.

Just kidding, no one like Duran Duran.

no ordinary love by deftones...AMAZING!!! although i've yet to hear the original.
and sublime...you should take them off the list. As much as i love them, i think they cover a lot of songs. How many Bob Marley/old reggae songs did they cover?? hmmm??

marilyn manson-sweet dreams :D
