"MacArthur Park is melting in the dark
All the sweet, green icing flowing down
Someone left the cake out in the rain
I don't think that I can take it
'Cause it took so long to bake it
And I'll never have that recipe again
Oh, no!"

Dave Matthews huh? I'm on it but can't find anything :(

Richard Hell 02-25-05 09:39 PM

Rage Against The Machine- Kick Out the Jams
John Mayor - The Wind Cries Mary

OG- 02-25-05 09:51 PM

Machine Head - Message in a Bottle
Dope - You Spin me Round

and though it isn't on a CD anywhere, but hopefully on a DVD eventually, Audioslave's cover of Seven Nation Army at Lollapalooza was the highlight of the concert. Damn that Tom Morello!

Richard Hell 02-25-05 09:55 PM

Richard Hell 02-25-05 09:57 PM

It's on the live at Central Park cd and dvd and also Live at Folsom field and probably several of DMB's other live albums. Out of the two I have listed I would recommend picking up The Central Park Concert

great covers: Not Fade Away - The Rolling Stones
Hallelujah - Jeff Buckley
Masters Of War - Pearl Jam
Cortez The Killer - Dave Matthews Band
Nothing But Flowers - Guster
Oh, Darlin! - Bela Fleck and The Flecktones
Strawberry Fields Forever - Ben Harper
Mad World - Roland Orzabal
Those are just the ones I can think of off the top of my head.
