I'm not a huge fan, but I gotta give it up for Disturbed's cover of Shout. It's a really dark song, Disturbed really made it their own. I don't like covers that are just straight copies ala Quiet Riot's version of "We're not gonna take it."

Or do you me their covers of Slade's "Cum on Feel the Noize" and "Mama Weer All Crazee Now"?

Not one person agreeing with me.
