Cover versions that are better than the original

[Sunny]

I'm sat in a Jamaican theme bar, they've just played Max Romeo - chase the devil (according to my phone).

I never knew Prodigy's Out of Space was a cover!

Mental . And that line makes way more sense in context

[Yorick]

Just heard Born To Be Wild by Slade live.

Rather good

[KungFooBob]

Maybe not better, but just as good.

Hate it. Shit singer compared to Ozzy.

I've never heard of Pomplamoose before? I liked that so am currently listening to some of their other stuff, including quite a few different mashups. They really are quite good.

[Saga Lout]

Linda Ronstadt singing Roy Orbison's Blue Bayou

[Taipan]

Okay, not better, but I love the playing for change stuff and this version is superb and it does have JPJ in!

In a similar vein, this is a playing for change version of Soulshine. Originally an Allman Brothers song, Warren Hayes was a one time member and a hugely underrated guitarist

Just seen this. It's an over-long, inferior version of the Plump DJ's reworking of I feel love - generally known as 'Donna Kebab'.

I've heard this on the wireless many times and loved it.
Just seen the video and wow!!!

I really do like the proper orchestra doing modern stuff. Ministry of sound and pete tong both do club classics with full orchestras and it's great. Listen to it a lot when I'm on my Peloton.

See if you can get tickets for the House and Garage Orchestra. Always a good show, with old skool* acts doing their stuff and covers with an orchestra in the background. Saw them at the Camden Palace a while back and at Brixton prior to that. Both bloody good nights.





This one always brings the house down.



*Has to be spelt like that. It's the law.

It's a month shy of 3 years since I posted that Lucie Silvas cover!
