Today's Cover Challenge: It Dies Today vs. Anberlin

Wed, 19 Mar 2008 12:56:33 GMT

I will state for the record that "Enjoy the Silence" is one of the best songs ever written, hands down. If pushed to name the five best single songs of all time, it would be in the top five. As such, it seems like it would be almost impossible to mess up a cover of it. Inspired by, as usual, one of the covers showing up on my iPod this morning, I bring you the "Enjoy the Silence" challenge. Which do you prefer?

It Dies Today:

-or-

Anberlin:

I feel like this challenge is somewhat weighed in favor of It Dies Today because of the video component, but honestly? If there were videos of both, it'd still be favoring It Dies Today. Try not to be distracted by the pretty boys, and vote for the best cover song in the comments.
