Heart's Ann and Nancy Wilson absolutely nailed Stairway to Heaven.

Look for Robert Plant's reaction near the end.



Speaking of Heart, Alice In Chains & Gretchen Wilson covered the former's Barracuda in 2007.

I love it.

Politicians kissing babies for good luck,
TV preachers sell salvation for a buck.
You don't need no golden cross to tell you wrong from right,
The world's worst murderers were those who saw the light.

Under the banner of "worse" comes this atrocity.

Love the original of this song, but The Superjesus' cover is brilliant.

This is brilliant. I love the guy's voice. I have to admit I didn't mind the original (sad, sorry!) but I think this is better.

RADAR LOVE

Golden Earring[my rating 9.1]
https://youtu.be/Sm1q1XoN_Qo


The Iron Cross version [ wow! lead singer -shades of Suzi Quatro][ my rating 9.3]
https://youtu.be/zoAPO8rUPYw

Personally, I find it rare for the cover to sound better than the original
On this occasion I vote for The Iron Cross , one of the best cover bands Ive heard

They are amazing. I've heard them before but that cover of Toto is sen-bloody-sational.

Can't believe I've never heard of them before, thanks for posting locky. Just spent the last hour going through some of their vids.
