Well, I wouldn't say every song by Bob Dylan :D

But this one is certainly a good Dylan cover.

:laughing: That's true!

One of the greatest covers ever.

:beer::stupid::band:

Song to the Siren - John Frusciante (originally by Tim Buckley)

Frusciante is my favourite artist, so I'm hardly unbiased. Also, I think a lot of the times it comes down to which version I hear first.

While I think this is blasphemy, here's one that is better.

You can hate me now :P

Have nothing against the U2 original (Achtung Baby is a fine record, credit where due) but this is really beautiful, the best thing they've ever done probably

I was listening to that earlier..Garbage.. on youtube and noticed a few others under the same label, all really good, hard to say better though as not committed ....

Original by Alannah Miles

close call...

Original....

Better

Intriguing.

I don't know that I've seen a more obvious lip-synch.

Sometimes it is not just the Music though.:thumb:..I see differently than males for some reason..... :thumb: I worship James Bay's music, bet you Don't at all..

:thumb:

up against Whitney Houston...Depends on your mood....:thumb:
let's face it now, I love Whitney's music just love Jame's more....call be biased then...;)

:clap::clap:

He covered Alicia Keys at one point, and I remember liking that.

the best....

Now everyone knows I’m an ex ginger they won’t talk to me :D

Hiya Ginge, yeah but 50 Shades of Gray.....

I don't know if this would be called "better" but it's certainly more entertaining.

I think it's better, but then again, I can be pretty weird :D

I think they're equal but the Devo version is hella more danceable.

This track is superior to the original too

Any song Devo covers is just better by default.

Something Bob Dylan can just do, back then..

James Blunt I could listen to more though...
Bruce Springsteen..not for me that one...

I love it....
not saying it could possibly better, but just thought it was a great version...

Though the original is amazing as well

I'm thinking I like it as it's different to the rest.......



it goes like this...

we have disagreement here. Chris Hillman still insists that Gram wrote this (it is more of a Parsons song than Keith). Parsons was drunk as usual and Keith was listening to him playing this tune on the piano. When Hillman told Gram that the Stones had stolen his song, Gram just smiled and said it was an honor to be ripped off by Mick & Keith. Now, that's either truth or legend. Gram's version is still definitive.

the acoustic version of the Orignal is good...



lot of choice there....

I like Leon Russels version:

Tristam - Bone Dry (Piano Cover) Can't remember the specific name of the cover artist but it doesn't seem it will matter much.

Nirvana - The Man Who Sold The World (David Bowie's cover)

The Beatles - Twist and Shout (The Fab Four's cover)

First heard this on this Video

seems to be the same guy..

Speaking of the Stones...I prefer their protopunk-ish take on "She Said Yeah" by Larry Williams.
