Even tho I’m a big Prince fan, I actually prefer Darren Hayes’ acoustic cover of Prince’s “I Wish Heaven”. It sounds closer to what I imagine MJ would have done if he had covered a Prince song.

Prince- I Wish U Heaven

Darren Hayes- I Wish U Heaven

I had never heard of the song Black Coffee (originally by Ike & Tina Turner) until about 3 years ago but I heard Humble Pie’s bluesy-rock cover of it first and it’s the definitive version of it for me (and one of my favorite tunes.)

The greatest cover of "Africa" isn't Weezer, it's Mike Masse.

Even Dolly said that was Whitney's song because she took it to a whole different level.


Josh Weathers did it better.

That's a fact. The guys in Toto have even said that his cover is their favorite.
