O/T Cover versions

[nakedtruth]

How about My Way by Sid Vicious?

Or Leonard Cohen’s “hallelujah” done by a few (personally I prefer the original)

Even Aretha Franklin’s Respect was a cover

Tainted Love, Soft Cell version maybe?

To me, to you by the brexit negotiators?

Not quite sure if "cover versions" is quite correct but have you ever heard a version of a song that made you reappraise it completely? A couple of examples I've come across. Firstly, I only knew Bring Me Sunshine from the Morecambe and Wise show and then I heard Willie Nelson sing it and thought "Wow". Secondly, I love Judy Garland singing Over the Rainbow but the Eva Cassidy version gives it a whole new (not better or worse imo but very different) interpretation.

"Beat me to it" with Over the Rainbow

Add Fields of Gold and Wonderful World also on the Songbird album

Love Iz's (Israel Kamakawiwo'Ole) version of Over The Rainbow and some of the other covers he did. Must be the ukulele. Tool a look at that Eva Cassidy version - nice!

Nick Cave did some cracking covers, not least Stagger Lee. From a traditional tune. Genius.
