Cover #75: Elisapie covers "The Unforgiven" by Metallica

    I don't much care for the original because it is boring and it reminds me (along with "Nothing Else Matters") of how and when Metallica permanently went off course.  I can, however, see how this song lends itself to a lot of different cover interpretations, including this one by the talented Inuk artist Elisapie.  She provides a laid back cover with some really cool touches- light pow-wow drums, periodic animal sounding squeaks and squeals, and gentle vocals.  If I never hear the Metallica original ever again I will be just fine, but I would like to hear this version often.
