| Favourite cover versions As the title suggests list your favourite covers BUT you have to prefer the cover to the original. I am generally not a big fan of cover versions as IMO the original artist knows best how a song should sound and feel, very rarely does a cover give something new to a song, though there are exceptions.
Favourites of mine would be:
Tori Amos (Eminem) 97 Bonnie & Clyde
Johnny Cash (The Beatles) In my Life
Arno (Abba) Knowing me Knowing you
Arno (The Rolling Stones) Mother's Little Helper
White Stripes (Dolly Parton) Jolene
Violent Femmes (Culture Club) Do you really want to hurt me
Bauhaus (David Bowie) Ziggy Stardust
Nick Cave & the Bad Seeds (The Beatles) Here comes the sun
At first thought the list would be longer but having to actually prefer the cover over the original makes it more difficult! |
