Metallica or ACDC
 
My wife and I got into the discussion on who is better , ACDC or Metallica. We both agreed that both are awesome but if you had to pick, who would it be? For me it would be ACDC. I was fortunate enough to see them in concert in the late 80's and it was simply awesome. I like Metallica and I have seen them several time, but for me it is ACDC. But RUSH is my fav group of all time.

Oh good God, neither.

Ok, Metallica, if I had to choose.

Neither. How can you not like ACDC? I like old Metallica better than their new stuff.

I feel the same way. I hated the song Open Arms. GOD that song makes me sick. Journey is the whinniest band ever.

I prefer ACDC, but my all time favorite is The Who.

Puking in your mouth isn't going to cover up that nasty breath, Bill... try listerine instead. :p

I had.....
 
3rd row seats back in the 80's for ACDC, best seats of ever had for a concert, it was great! I would pick ACDC, not because of the show, but because of the overal body of music. I agree with the comment of old Metallica being superior to their more recent stuff! Rock on!

Two great bands imo, if I had to pick...Metallica by a nose after examining the photo! Guns and Roses ranks as my #1 but both of these are on the short list. I found a version of Nothing Else Matters done by Bif Naked that I added to my Myspace site...great song and she does a nice version but it lacks the power of the original!

I heard a re-make of Sweet Child O'Mine the other day on the radio. It was by a female and I don't know who it was. It sounded like Cherly Crow but I am not sure. Needless to say, I didn't like it one bit.

It's hard to do a re-make that stands up to the original...I think the ones I enjoy all have one thing in common, the artist takes the song and does it in his/her/their style not merely a copy of the original, a few I like:
G&R's version of "Knocking on Heaven's Door"
The Sundays version of "Wild Horses"
Manfred Mann's version of "The Mighty Quinn"
The Byrds version of "Tamborine Man"
Jimi Hendrix's version of "All Along the Watchtower"

My fav are
Manfred Mann's version of Blinded By The Light
The Sundays version of "Wild Horses"
Goldfingers version of "99 Red Balloons"
Red Hot Chili Peppers version of "Love RollerCoaster"

Ah, we agree on the Sundays....I love that version! Who did the original of Blinded By the Light?

Bruce Springsteen did the original. He did it like a folk song. Just him and his guitar. The Sunday's version of Wild Horses is wonderful. It is so relaxing.
