GOOD covers of BAD songs

[YOUTUBE]RZOPte4hlqE&feature=related[/YOUTUBE] the clash, junco partner, originaly an old blues song by professer longhair, it's not fair to compare given the decades that seperate the songs but the clash really do this justice, for one of punk rocks leading banRAB to attempt it in the style they did respect!
 
Holy Diver is a really good cover. Most of the metal fans I've talked to like it. And it surprises me but it's completly understandable.
 
well I have to comment that I disagree with the majority of the posts in this threats...I find the original versions of most songs mentioned better then their covers, and in any case I wouldn't call half of this songs bad...I even saw replies about "Money" and "Welcome to the Machine", which are considered,and are classics.
 
Yeah, but still doesnt beat ZZ Tops version man!



I like Seal's work including that song. Hes an excellent soul singer. 'Kiss From A Rose' is one that I heard from a very early age.

This song was by no means bad in the first place, but the cover version is ten times better than the original.

Not a bad song to begin with, but I do like this cover more than the original. Well, maybe because I've listened to the original so many times and it's just a nice change.

The song isn't even slutty.
I guess the rest is according to your opinion.
But how can a song that's not slutty be more slutty than another one...?
 
I favourited this because I don't know how I feel about it yet.
I obviously like Lady Gaga. But I can appreciate good covers.
This isn't better, and Telephone wasn't a bad song.
In the cover, I feel like there's a LOT going on, and I don't know if that's good or just overwhelming.
