Song: Big Ten Inch Record
Orignal: Bull Moose Jackson
Cover: Aerosmith
I've heard both versions. Aerosmith's version is better. The lyrics are VERY risqué. It's amazing since the original was released in
the 1940's0 -
Song: Girlfriend is Better
Original: Talking Heads
Cover: Umphreys McGee
Umph had been known to seamlessly tear it up when it comes to covering some classic stuff, but they have a soft spot for a lot of Talking Heads material... This is one of my favorite Talking Heads covers that they perform live.0 -
Neither of these are necessarily better...just depends on the mood.
Song: Love Song
Original: The Cure
Best Cover (there are a zillion): 311

Original: Don Henley

I like Johnny Cash's version
Agreed. The Cash version is definitive and even Reznor prefers it to his own.

Original: Dylan

Song: Whiskey in the Jar
Original: Irish folk song
Cover: Metallica
Metallica also covered "Turn the Page," but I like both theirs and the original equally. I almost always prefer original versions, but I like to hear what new twists some artists put on cover tunes.0 -

I think the Thin Lizzy version is the best.0 -
I thought of another one:
Song: Anarchy in the UK
Original: Sex Pistols
Cover: Motley Crue
I like the Sex Pistols version better...plus they are FROM the UK and Motley Crue is not, which makes it more legit by default.0 -

Song: I Walk the Line
Original: Johnny Cash
Cover: Live
For me, this is a toss up. I really like the original, but I also dig Live's version of it.0 -
Song: Because The Night
Original: Written by Bruce Springsteen, recorded by Patti Smith
Cover: 10,000 Maniacs
Winner: I'd have to say 10,000 Maniacs simply because Natalie Merchant's gravelly voice makes her sexy as hell. Patti Smith was just scary.0 -

You're all going to be mad at me, but I did love this version:
Rolling in the Deep
Original: Adele
Cover: Linkin Park
I think Adele's is the best, but they made it angry.0 -

Whiskey in the Jar is actually an OLD Irish song pre Thin Lizzy they just made it popular so there's is actually also a cover.0 -
Don't know about definitive, but I prefer the Placebo version of "Running Up that Hill" over Kate Bush's original.0

Somebody That I used to Know
Original: Gotye

I prefer WOTE's version to the original
Polly
Original: Nirvana
Cover: Walk off the earth
Nothing will ever replace Kurt in my world but the cover is pretty decent.0 -
