If you're gonna do a cover...

I have heard some REALLY bad covers lately, and although I'm not opposed at all to bands paying homage to songs they like, it is nice when it is pulled off successfully instead of making you want to climb into the radio and strangle someone. If done well, the cover should offer an updated perspective on a song that the new band respects. It can even serve the original band by reminding people about the song. I'm posting a cover that I think was successful. Both versions are old now, but goodies...the original by New Order & the cover by Orgy: please enjoy these versions of "Blue Monday."
