Cover versions
Mar. 15th, 2009 01:04 amQuery for Poptimists!
Sometimes - quite often, in fact, I think - cover versions are miles better than the original. I put forth PSB's 'Where the Streets Have No Name'. I like this MUCH better than the U2 version!
Which cover versions do you think surpass the original flavour?
