bob dylans house of the rising sun

i dont know which i like best... i kinda like bob dylans way of singing it lol

I have to say that Jimi Hendrix doing All Along the Watchtower is still the best cover of all time. I am a HUGE DMB fan, but even they can't top Jimi.

Pierce The Veil covered "Don't Fear The Reaper" on the recent release Punk Goes Classic Rock, I like PTV and I think their cover is one of the few on the album that are actually good

Oh and since you guys brought up "All Along The Watchtower" Envy on the Coast covered that on the album as well, sounds pretty ace as well.
