The Futureheads present:
Their 5 best and worst cover versions.

You are here: I Like Music > rock > The Futureheads present:
Their 5 best and worst cover versions.

The Futureheads unleash their angular pop-punk rendition of Kate Bush's classic 'Hounds of Love' 25th February 2005. A staple of their live set for some time now, 'Hounds of Love' is an inspired showstopper of a tune from a band hitting their creative stride as never before. They now give us the low down on their top five rated cover versions and with that, five tunes that don't quite cut the mustard… Agree? Disagree? Discuss….

The Futureheads Top Five Cover Versions

1) The Clash 'Police and Thieves': Absolute classic cover version! It completely nails everything about the [Junior Murvin and Lee 'Scratch' Perry] original. It's subtle but brilliant.

2) XTC 'All Along the Watchtower': This insane representation of the Dylan tune reworks it completely. Pretty difficult to recognise that it isn't just a post-punk funk workout...

3) Dinosaur Jr 'Just Like Heaven': This version contains 45 seconds of extreme screaming. The Cure's classic pop song is turned on its head into complete college punk-rock. Both versions are excellent.
