Has this t hread been done before?
Probably..................... Lets do it again anyway!
What are some cover songs u like more than the originals.
Im probably gonna get slammed for one or two of these.
I know this sounds crazy and maybe I am the only one, But I like Limp Bizkit's version of "Behind Blue Eyes" way better th an the original The Who Version.
GNR's covers of course
Lets hear some

Jimi Hendrix - All Along The Watchtower Sonarta Artica - Wind Beneath My Wings Jeff Buckley - Hallelujah Metallica's Whiskey in the Jar
Nirvana's The man Who Sold The World
Totally agree with them!  I know this sounds crazy and maybe I am the only one, But I like Limp Bizkit's version of "Behind Blue Eyes" way better than the original The Who Version.
But totally dont agree with that one. the original was a masterpiece, but they even got rid of the solo n rapped over it in the limp bizkit one  for christs sake |

I like their version too, but maybe it's because I heard it before the original. |

Blah, covers are horrible....None of those hold a candle to the originals.
Covers I can tolerate though are:
Last Kiss - Pearl Jam
LALD - GNR
Everybody's Gotta Learn Sometime - Beck
Waterloo Sunset - David Bowie (It's far too overproduced, but it has a nice little different ting to it than the Kink's version.)

There he goes. One of God's own prototypes. A high-powered mutant of some kind never even considered for mass production. Too weird to live, and too rare to die.

Jimi Hendrix - All along the watchtower (Dylan)- has to be the greatest example of the superior cover
GNR - Sympathy for the devil (Stones), really runs the original ragged
Type O neative - Cinnamon Girl (Neil Young) - so so much better

I haven't heard the original all the way through, but no one has mentioned The Beatles' version of Twist and Shout.
