I hope this was meant to be a joke of some kind on the part of Metallica, because wow... that's just terrible.

I'm sorry you can't enjoy awesome fun music.

Is it not okay to prefer the original?

No, of course that is okay.

I really love the COB version and it's probably my favorite cover of all time. There is the caveat, however, that I love COB to begin with. And listen mostly to heavy music, all the time.

I found Kid Rock's track that included "Sweet Home Alabama" in it kind of enjoyable.

A little something for you less sonically violent types
Rare Earth: Get Ready  (The Temptations)

Halloween theme cover.
