Amorphis - Light My Fire (The Doors Cover)

A cover in another genre. Also, a cover that crushes the original and makes it a LOT better in all aspects.

This is an stoner doom metal re-imagining of Trial Before Pilate from Andrew Lloyd Webber's Jesus Christ Superstar (which is a rock opera). I wouldn't say so much that it's better as just really cool and different. And the song totally lends itself to being some stoner doom metal, which you might not have guessed as it's from a broadway musical type thing.

Our Last Night covered Radioactive by Imagine Dragons and it's pretty kickass! I figured most people on SSO aren't post-hardcore fans so this probably slipped under the radar.

That is awesome! My brother and I did a cover of "Round and Round" a few months back, for anyone who feels like having a listen:
