Covers that were better than the original
title is fairly straightforward, what song covers do you think were better than the original version?
I'd say: "I Fought the Law" by the Clash "War Pigs" by Faith No More (so shoot me, I liked this one better) "Come Together" by Aerosmith "In My Life" by Johnny Cash "Hurt" by Johnny Cash "Mad World" by Gary Jules "Silver and Gold" by Joe Strummer "Gloria" by Patti Smith (ok, debatable as to whether or not it's a cover, but I say it counts)

I don't like the Clash's version of I Fought The Law, I always prefered the Dead Kennedys one. But neither better the original.
Sid doin' My Way! Hell yeh, that's some dope dope shit dude. Jane's Addiction did a pretty decent version of Sympathy For The Devil (unlike Guns N' Roses). A few I dig: MOTORHEAD - Motorhead SEPULTURA - The Hunt, Symptom Of The Universe & their version of Orgasmatron NAILBOMB - Exploitation NEIL YOUNG - Oh Lonesome Me JUICY LUCY - Willie The Pimp DEAD MOON - Milk Cow Blues JIMI HENDRIX - All Along The Watchtower Pretty much anything the Cramps re-work or cover is equal to or better than the original. Nick Cave's covers of The Singer and Wanted Man are fuckin' down aswell. There's a bunch of shit I can't think of right now (a whole lot of 60s R&B should be on there but meh my brains slow this morning) .... might come back to this one.

and I hadn't even thought of this when I started the thread (listening to "War Pigs" by Faith No More is what sparked it, btw)
