I think if the cover is realeased close to the original, then I'd hope to hear a very different version.
If the cover is from a track some 30 years old for instance, then I'd expect to see some respect shown to the original artist and hear a version as close to the original as possible.
I always tend to think the originals are the best, however there are exceptions.
Big3, if it's done well, then I don't see anything wrong with it.
