uh an easy one is the marylin manson remix of This Is Halloween from the Nightmare Before Christmas. Another is the daft punk version of one more time by black eyed peas. Oh and there's a skrillex (I thiiiink it was skrillex) remix of Sexual Seduction that was great. Not a dubstep fan but that one was pretty dank IMO.

Both I guess. They/He was a supporting act at the first gig I ever went to. I was only a kid so would have been trying hard to like it, but the overwhelming memory of that day all these years later (26) is that they were absolutely crap.

The other band was good, the headliners were brilliant. it was just them that ruined a nice day out.

I checked them out recently on youtube, no better.

I've never been to a live concert but nin is kind of an acquired taste. I didn't like in highschool when everyone did, but I like now. i don't think it would carry over very well live because it's very layered and sounds very different on studio headphones than even speakers.

Easy. Marilyn Manson's cover of "Sweet Dreams" and "Tainted Love" and Jimi Hendrix's cover of "All Along the Watchtower.

Fuck Disturbed's "Sound of Silence"; it's trash. It isn't even close to Simon and Garfunkel's original.

As for the faggot who listed Limp Bizkit... Just stop. They are a shit-tier band. Still waiting for the dumbass who embarasses himself by saying Guns 'N Roses's "Sympathy for the Devil" or some equally pathetic claim.
