Re: Covers that are better than the originals
I'll get thinking.
But there is no way that the Futureheads Hounds of Love is better than the Kate Bush original.

I sometimes prefer this to the original ... but not always.

Re: Covers that are better than the originals
A few of the Creedence Clearwater Revival cover versions are pretty good. 'Before You Accuse Me' (Bo Diddly), 'My Baby Left Me' (Arthur Crudup) and 'Susie Q' (Dale Hawkins) are all brilliant songs. 'I Heard it Through the Grapevine' goes on a bit though, and the way Fogerty sings it in his faux-Southern accent it sounds like he's saying he "hoyed it through the grapevine."

Their version of I Put a Spell on You is pretty good.

Yeah it's a good cover, but I don't enjoy it as much as the other ones .Ramone wrote:Their version of I Put a Spell on You is pretty good.

Removing the 80sness and the guy's voice (especially the guy's voice) from Word up makes it vastly inferior (especially the guy's voice).
Also, AAF better than MJ?

(also, whitney houston's version of i will always love you is better than dolly parton's, but i won't bother posting that)

Re: Covers that are better than the originals
Never reealised Rise Against's Built to Last was a cover. It's much better than the original:
