I'll Be Your Mirror - The Primitives (The Velvet Underground) Helter Skelter - Siouxsie And The Banshees (The Beatles) Dear Prudence - Siouxsie And The Banshees (The Beatles) A Case Of You - Tori Amos (Joni Mitchell) If 6 Was 9 - Tori Amos (Hendrix) 1983 - Christian Death (Hendrix) When The Levee Breaks - Rosetta Stone (Zeppelin) I'm sure I can think of hundreds more. Actually Led Zeppelin's version isn's the original of when the levee breaks, although their arrangement is radically different from the original. The original is an old blues song by Memphis Minnie Edit: whoops, minneapolisgenius already pointed that out [Edited 6/11/06 15:23pm] | |
