Covers better than originals

[_lecro_]

 

[MOOGLEYS]

I think Gary Jules cover of Mad World is better than Tears for fears original.

Possibly not better, but certainly interesting...

I'm going for an older and slightly insane punk rocker here. John Otway.



And his all time classic - House of the Rising Sun.

Nothing against the original, but I'm a huge Joan Jett fan.

In a bit of a Bauhuas mood recently, maybe bacuase they're celebrating 40 years of their songs and they're touring again. Three of their covers (I've excluded their cover of JJ Cale's Rose Garden Funeral of Sores) Third Uncle is a rocking version of Brian Eno's original; Telegram Sam they recorded and released as a single, is much better than the original Marc Bolan version (imo), and their version of Ziggy Stardust isn't better than Bowie's version I just like it

Has anyone mentioned John Frusciante’s cover of Song to the Siren?
