Disturbed and Chester Bennington also teamed up during Ozzfest 2001 to perform this cover.

The band Kilgore recorded a version for the Extreme Championship Wrestling: Extreme Music CD as Rob Van Dam's entrance theme.

Avenged Sevenfold recorded a cover of the song, which was included on their album Live in the LBC & Diamonds in the Rough. It was released as the first single on the album. However, the song was originally recorded for the band's first DVD, All Excess. It was later included on the album as it was never released on CD. On the live DVD that was included with the album which was recorded at Long Beach Arena, the band performed the song live with a member from the audience (Matteo Valenza, according to the credits of the Live DVD) performing the vocals.

Famous quotes containing the word covers:

    Wishing to get a better view than I had yet had of the ocean, which, we are told, covers more than two thirds of the globe, but of which a man who lives a few miles inland may never see any trace, more than of another world, I made a visit to Cape Cod.... But having come so fresh to the sea, I have got but little salted.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    And mimic desolation covers all.
    Thomas Gray (1716–1771)

    In truth, politeness is artificial good humor, it covers the natural want of it, and ends by rendering habitual a substitute nearly equivalent to the real virtue.
    Thomas Jefferson (1743–1826)
