Cover Songs Better Than the Original

[Smoothrj]

Like movie sequels most cover songs don't measure up to the original. But there are a few that I think are far superior. What are some of yours?

Guns 'n' Roses - Knocking on Heaven's Door

The Fugees - Killing Me Softly

Jimi Hendrix - All Along the Watchtower

Metallica - Turn The Page (just barely than the original, but better)

Pearl Jam - Last Kiss

Do not agree with #4 or 5....didn’t think the Pearl Jam was genuine...to me it was so far away from there normal sound.

I dont know how. But someone should post "the scientist" by willie

Only because he's my favorite vocalist and guitarist

Dixie Chicks? Really! Nope, not that one. The rest I either agree or come very close to agreeing.

i know they are bat $$&$ crazy but they are world class musicians

No way Pearl Jam's Last Kiss is better than the original by Wayne Cochran.
