Page 1 of What’s your favourite cover version?

One of mine is...

All along the Watchtower

Hendrix

Red Hot Chili Peppers - Higher Ground (I didn`t say Fire at risk of offending the above ;) )

Soft Cell`s Tainted Love is probably the "definitive" cover song, since it`s probably more famous than the original, and most ppl think it`s the original. It`s also damned good :)

Could someone please
Remove these cutleries
From my knees...

Talking Heads - Take me to the river.

Prince - Nothing Compares to U
(although he wrote the original anyway, so does it actually count because he recorded it second?)

And Chakka Khan`s cover of Prince`s original is an 80s classic!

Loved some of the Radio 1 covers.

One I thought was really good was Liberty X singing Radioheads High & Dry, not a fan of Liberty X at all, quite like Radiohead but the cover (as far as I remember) was really good.

Think it was on in August/September 2001, never heard it since.

When Lost Prophets were in Cardiff a few weeks back they played Prodigy`s Omen and Marilyn Manson`s Beautifull People, both were amazing.

Other Radio 1 covers - Editors doing The Cure`s Lullaby
Foo Fighters doing Wing`s (Not the Chinese woman) Band on the Run.

All the best

Gerald.
