The manson family hadn't committed the murders when the Beatles released it... Manson took the white album to heart a little too much picked stuff out of different songs claimed they for told certain things.. which you probably would do if you'd been fryin your brain on acid for years..

I suppose we have all just been reminded that Sinead O'Connor produced one of the greatest covers of all time.

My bad, I didn't know nothing compares to you was originally a Prince song.

For me it is inextricability linked with Sinead. As someone said: a voice and passion that could cut through concrete.

Chaka Khan s cover of Princes

"Feel for you" was an instant classic and a masterpiece .

Also many people don t know that Kelly Marie s " feels like I m in Love " was a cover by Mungo Jerry who originally intended it for Elvis Presley ..

Both Nirvana and Mark Lanegan's versions of Where Did You Sleep Last Night.

Completely different feels to each. Mark sounded like he wanted to kill his woman, Kurt sounded like he wanted to kill...well, himself

Landslide covered by Dixie Chicks, the original is epic with Stevie, but those Dixie harmonies get me right in the feels.

Wouldn't say I hated them... but most of their songs are pretty bad. And I don't understand the Lennon/McCartney worship at all. (George was the best songwriter)

She also did an amazing version of Tom Petty's "Wildflowers" as a tribute after he died. Nothing could beat Tom but she very nearly does....
