Cover Songs...

Of late, most bands will toss out a 'cover' song as a b side or for their 'hey we went gold, so we'll re-release the record with a cover song on it' record. While most of these tracks are insanely well produced and very well played, there is no risk involved. Everyone plays it safe (ie... Killswitch and 'Holy Diver'). I've only heard one 'metal' band really take a chance. Mnemic did a badass cover of 'Wild Boys' from Duran Duran, and it was kick ass. They took a chance. There's respect there. I want BOH to do a cover or two. Any ideas?
