Anyone like this cover song?

Lazlo Bane - Overkill

a cover of Men at Work's song "Overkill"


IMHO one of the best re-done covers in the sense they capture the feeling of the song, yet made it stronger... AND actually got the original singer Colin Hay to contribute... I'd say that's a great cover.



BTW, got any other covers this good?

Not a bad redo of the song but I still prefer the old one. Overall not a bad band from what I have just watched on YouTube and they do some good stuff that appears to be their own music. Might have to listen to some more to decide if I want to add some of their music to the mp3 collection.
