Covers that are better than the original

[Subduction Zone]

This is my favorite cover of all time. I think it's significantly better than the original version by Bob Seger:

Johnny Cash's cover of Hurt is my second favorite:

I like Seger's vocals better, but Metallica is the superior band.

 

[Mock Turtle]

Many might not agree but I prefer this version to the original:

 

[PureX]

 

[Estro Felino]

My FAVORITE version of California dreaming

 

[Estro Felino]

Shoots and ladders

 

[Estro Felino]

Britney Spears' version is much better

 

[RestlessSoul]

Better than Bob Dylan's orginal

I seem to remember reading somewhere, that even Bob agreed

 

[SalixIncendium]

 

[SalixIncendium]

 

[SalixIncendium]

 

[Jainarayan]

You Are My Sunshine, The Dead South version, better than the original. Dark and threatening.

 

[F1fan]

Disturbed's version of Sound Of Silence is the only cover that Paul Simon actually linked on his own website.
