| Cover Songs That Are Better Than The Original Posted by Degas on 4/5 at 3:59 am ...if there is such a thing. Whatcha got? Reply Back to Top |
| Social Distortion's cover of Ring of Fire (Cash) Nofx cover of Straight Edge (minor threat) Reply Back to Top |
quote: Now that you mention him, I like Cash's version of Hurt better than the original. Reply Back to Top |
quote: I totally agree. I love the song and the video. I have a ton of other remakes I just cant think of them at the minute. I am having memory loss this morning. Reply Back to Top |
| All Along the Watchtower"...jimi's is way better than bob's Reply Back to Top |
quote: Picking Dylan should be banned in these threads (and I like Dylan's originals). The Byrds probably have two albums worth of great Dylan covers. Richard Thompson -- "Oops I Did It Again" Reply Back to Top |
| Great Call on Richard Thompson. I am a huge fan of his music. I love the Gourds cover of Gin and Juice. Reply Back to Top |
| Halestorm - Bad Romance It doesn't hurt that I hate Lady Gaga, don't like the original and most importantly that I think that Lzzy Hale is amazing Reply Back to Top |
| i'll go with three covers by the same band REM I Am Superman (original by the Clique) Crazy (original by Pylon) Dream (orig by the Everly Brothers) Reply Back to Top |
quote: The Clique's original has an innocence and freshness about it that REM's cover doesn't quite capture. I like both versions. Reply Back to Top |
quote:completely agree. he was a lyrical genius, but his sound isn't for everyone. Stereophonics - Nothing Compares To You Reply Back to Top |

| Wagon Wheel is kinda a cover. Reply Back to Top |
| Grateful Dead - Morning Dew Grateful Dead - Good Lovin' Reply Back to Top |
| Better? not sure, but I like their take on this tune... Derailers - Raspberry Beret Derailers - Then She Kissed Me (though The Crystals version is still the best) This post was edited on 4/5 at 8:39 am Reply Back to Top |
