Foo Fighters with Zac Brown: "War Pigs"

ChaosEnginesays...

Who is Zac Brown? and can he not learn the damn lyrics? and goddamn it, they ruined the ending.

Still, Taylor Hawkins is killing it on the drums and looks like he's really enjoying himself! and auto-upvote for anything that involves a Flying V

note to self: buy a Flying V

Comment hidden because you are ignoring dag.(show it anyway)

Was just about to submit this but you beat me by a mere 5 hours. ;-) Really nice cover. Yes, the lyrics were a little off but, I thought Zac Brown did an otherwise good job, the tune lends itself to a country style in those sections I think.

I remember listening to this song on my Walkman in about '84. Takes me back.

You were listening to Ozzy Sabbath during the post-Dio, Deep Sabbath era?

David Letterman still has the best intro ever for the Foo Fighters.

"If have to say, we have some young men here, that if it wasn't for them; we as Americans would be out there every day, fighting foo."

I laughed so hard when he said that. =)

Yuss!!

@Asmo, the Faith No More version is epic (pun very much intended)

When I was a teenager, I was hanging out in the guitar shop my mate worked in. We were playing War Pigs (Sabbath version) on the stereo and this dude comes in and says "wow, Mike Pattons voice sounds really weird"

just found this: Faith No More with Ozzy and James Hetfield!

orsum squared

Yes, it was just old enough to be retro-cool. Kind of like kids today listening to Nirvana. @deathcow and I were also listening to a lot of Zeppelin, Judas Priest, Dio, etc etc. Picture these guys: http://videosift.com/video/Heavy-Metal-Parking-Lot

I'll always love the Sabbath original, but FNM just managed to take it and make it their own. Kinda like Cash singing Reznor's Hurt.

Yeah, Cash's version of Hurt is just amazing.

I think there are some amazing Sabbath covers out there.
Sepulturas version of Symptom of the Universe is one of my favourite covers of all time, and Panteras version of Planet Caravan is just sublime.

I take it you've listened to Nativity in Black then?

I love Dickensen/Godspeed doing Sabbath Bloody Sabbath as well... = )
