Is there a cover version of a song you like by the original artist that has been in your ears truly murdered by a covering artist? Mine is 'Everybody Knows' by Leonard Cohen, absolutely murdered by Barb Jungr.
Never cared much for David Bowie’s take on “Across the Universe”, but on a positive note (no pun) Johnny Cash’s version of “Hurt” tramples Nine Inch Nail’s version. They did write a great song.
A little correction about The Tide Is High. It was originally by a Jamaican band from, if I remember correctly, 1960s. Blondie was some time in the early 1980s.
