I love the chauffer.  i think when deftones covered it it sounded better, crisper, cleaner and most of all heavier.

Thats the one song the Deftones covered that I didn't care for as the original song, by Duran Duran. The Deftones made it awesome. Chino sang it spot on. 

If Chino sang it spot on, then how did you not like the original?

Have you heard the original? Chino sounded just like dude from Duran Duran, but the way Deftones remade it sounded better.

I love Duran Duran... and I love the way they did Chauffeur.  With that said, I'd take Deftones version hands down over the original.  Chino does sound pretty spot on to Simon... but there is so much more to the song than just the vocals!   Deftones version gives it a little more of a "rock" feel.   And cmon'  Chino's    "Singgggggggggggggg Bluuuuuuuuuuuuuue Silverrrrrrrrrrrrr"  FTW.


Aside from this song my other Deftones covers are

No Ordinary Love and Savory
hang a noose for my new sinner.... somewhere everyone can see it...

the chauffer that cover rocks!

Both Duran Duran covers are brilliant, inspired when realised as heavy songs.

Yea, thats what I was saying: The Chauffeur was originally not a song I really liked, it was electronic and wierd. Then Deftones made it a "Rock" song, and totally owned it. I love Duran Duran tho, not a fan of their original.

If Only Tonight We Could Sleep & The Chauffeur

Battle-Axe

The Chauffeur, Simple Man and Drive are my favourites :]

No Ordinary Love was pretty amazing when they played that in Manchester in 2006 as well.

The BEST is The Chauffeur

then it would be as follows:
Nightboat
To Have and To Hold
No Ordinary Love
Sinatra
Sweetest Perfection (crappy mp3, but lovely one)
Jealous Guy
Milk (or I want milk, it's a cover? I just love it!)
And nobody mentioned Sleep Walk... it's a very good one...!!!

But I like every cover they have made, they made it in their own original way!

Yes yes, Deftones, yes yes, heavy metal, yes yes, nü metal, yes yes, fucking queer, yes yes...
