Which cover songs are better than the original?

[tourists24]

I love both of these versions, but always love it when hard rock bands go out of their genre to produce something that is still nice

Soggy Bottom Boys- I Am A Man Of Constant Sorrow - YouTube

Charm City Devils - Man Of Constant Sorrow (Official Video) - YouTube

 

[TheKid]

Manfred Mann's remake of "Blinded by the Light" was also a lot better than Bruce Springsteens original.

I am a HUGE fan of Springsteen and I beg to differ with you.
BTW , that is Springsteen's ONLY song to hit #1 and he didn't sing it.

There are many covers of this song. This is by far the best version.

Richie's vocals are deeper and more intense than Art's or Paul's.

99 red balloons, Nena and Goldfinger. I think the German version is better than the English version by Nena, but I enjoy the Goldfinger version a little more.
