George Michael/Mary Jane Blige v Stevie Wonder; As.

Was gonna nominate that myself but disagree Adele’s version of fast love is better! George is always the best

George Michael - first time ever I saw your face

Placebo - running up that hill was gonna be another nomination of mine

Blow monkeys - you don’t own me

Hallelujah - Jeff Buckley

Gnr - live and let die

Johnny cash - hurt - any person of interest fans perfectly accompanied scenes and music

I agree with

Tainted love - soft cell

Respect - Aretha Franklin (yep this is a cover version)

Controversial - much as I love Joni Mitchell I prefer Paul youngs version of “both sides now”

Joan jett - I love rock and roll

Joe cocker - with a little help from my friends

The disturbed cover was just a rip off of all that bland type of music that was popular. Bit like all those whiney girl bands and boring bland shite like yer man from Glasgow who's music is not only bland but depressing.

Here are a few which I don’t think have been mentioned yet

Everlasting love – Love Affair (Steve Ellis)

Try a Little Tenderness – Otis Redding

Don’t You (Forget About Me) – Simple Minds

Need Your Love So Bad – Fleetwood Mac

Piece of My Heart – Janis Joplin

Yes Sir I Can Boogie - The Fratellis

What Made Milwaukee Famous – Rod Stewart

Glimmer of Blooms – Can’t Get You Out of My Head

Anyone who likes vintage jazz, blues, r&b should visit the “Post Modern Jukebox” channel on YouTube. Too many to list but they are worth checking out.

Not sure if it’s better than the original but always liked; Rent By Carter USM because it’s so different from the original Pet shop boys song

I also love their Carter’s version of This Is How It Feels

"The man who sold the world - Nirvana. The unplugged version is the most known but the live and loud version is great too."

Bowie was a genius and a phenomenon talent but I agree, Nivanas is better. Same as the Johnny Cash version of "Hurt"

Not where we seem to be...

"Johnny Cash- Hurt…even NIN said he owns that song now.

At the end of the video, when Johnny Cash softly puts the lid down on the keys........

It's like......... he knows he's coming to the end.
