best cover version

[arch stanton]

Normally covers are a bit shizzle, especially in the modern age of talentless wannabees on the tv.

I much prefer Gary Jules - Mad World ( he did it on simon mayo's r5live show and it was hauntingly good)
than the original. What other decent covers are our faves?

That was a class cover, really stripped back, remember it being number 1 for a while. One of the worst has to be The Mike Flowers Pops and the cover of Wonderwall.
