Covers you like better than the original.
I don't remember if we've done this before, but if we have, bite me. :)
Manfred Mann: Blinded by the light <iframe width="420" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/lcWVL4B-4pI" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe> Bruce Springsteen: <iframe width="420" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/uozMTmEjxHc" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe> |
Hendrix/watchtower would be the classic example
|
My fave. The R&B track Tyrone done by My Morning Jacket. This particular performance features Erykah Badu, who's song it is. If you like guitar, hear this through. Love MMJ! You really should check out the entire Red Rocks performance. Two separate shows, completely different, excellent set lists.

To be fair, pretty much everything they covered in their "unplugged" session was the bee's knees. |

I'm torn on this because I lived through my teens in the 80s. I like the original better but it's VERY close. <iframe width="420" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/I7imqO-OBVk" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>

Two songs come to mind immediately.
Crimson and Clover. Original by Tommy James and the Shondells. Cover by Joan Jett and the Blackhearts <iframe width="420" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/GpGEeneO-t0" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe> <iframe width="420" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/hdhonK8NMm8" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe> Second, Hazy Shade of Winter. I'm a big fan of Simon and Garfunkel, but I like the cover better. <iframe width="420" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/M3nswy0LNsE" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe> <iframe width="560" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/19d2aolIx0E" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe> |
Of course I'm dating myself here -- I like the 80s versions better than the "before I was born" originals. :D

Tough one to call...I know which I prefer, but it's really close and I'd never bash anyone for liking Nazareth's cover of Emmylou and Gram's original.

Oh, and a point blank statement -- ANY cover of ANY Bob Dylan song sung by ANYONE ELSE, with the single exception of The Times They Are A'Changing. I hate Bob Dylan's voice. Hate, Hate, HATE. Somehow, I think it works great for that one song, but otherwise, take that nasally crap and go away.
Best cover of a Dylan song -- All Along the Watchtower, by Hendrix. |
