This (album) version has Grutle Kjellson of Enslaved on vocals. Very good version, although much heavier than the original. It may not be to everyone's tastes.

With magic, you can turn a frog into a prince.
With science, you can turn a frog into a Ph.D. and you still have the frog you started with.

Totally agree.

A good cover is one that doesn't sound like the original but is great in it's own right.

That's why the Iron Maiden cover of Cross-Eyed Mary is down right crapola as too that Halloween cover of Hocus Pocus (IMHO). Why do something if it sounds almost exactly the same as the original, but is inferior to the original in all aspects i.e. playing and vocals (or yodeling as far as Hocus Pocus is concerned!)?
