Covers better than the original

[GlosBlue]

Intolerable.

Ha ha each to their own. Only heard it when I saw them live. Prefer the upbeat version!

 

[magicjuan]

A decent version fair enough but no way better than the original.

Decent? Really? Buckley's version sounds like Mr Tambourine Man on Tramadol.

 

[COYBL25]

The Sisters of Mercy did a very good cover of that too.

 

[Kantareller]

The Who's cover of Summertime Blues was better than the original imo

 

[bring the ghost on]

This doesn't even touch the original. Oasis take a delicate, thoughtful arrangement and turn it into a wall-of-sound 6-strings/distortion-pedal bore-fest.

 

[COYBL25]

Much much better then the original.

 

[The Legend of Southall]

These two won't be popular, but I've always preferred them:

Whisky in a Jar - Metallica

Smooth Criminal - Alien Ant Farm

 

[Mutzo Nutzo]

Dishwalla cover Depeche Mode's Policy of Truth

Much much better then the original.

For sure. The Clash have form for out-doing the originals, see also I Fought The Law, Revolution Rock & Wrong 'Em Boyo.

Not to mention, Brand New Cadillac.

Great performers and we'll worth seeing live.
