Definite troll.

Bollocks.

But I can see where you're coming from

my suggestion would be Klaxons version of Not Over Yet. Who the fuck is gonna remember Grace?

'I'll keep it with mine' as performed by Fairport Convention.

will always be remembered for the Jeff Buckley cover and not the Leonard Cohen original.

Originally by Sally Seltmann

and indeed Toploader's version of "Dancing in the Moonlight".

by the Vichy Government?

History will prove me right...

mad world (tears for fears)

the enemy - we'll live and die in these towns (the jam)

the vichy govt certainly have more talent and charisma than nirvanna. so. i can see that.

but. isnt kate bush's hounds of love already quite popular and famous. same with mad world if you hang around in the right circles.

as for bob dylan. i think that most of his songs are better when covered. see the byrds.

i think, led zeppelin have immortalised the most here probably. A lot of their songs are just old blues classics reworked. as many bands did. But whenever anyone thinks of the hunter, its Led Zeppelins version that springs out, not say. Free, who also did a nice version. And Led Zep have that with a fair few songs i reckon

I think we're alone now.

..... "Such great heights" - Iron & Wine

seeing as the Knife album it's on is so average (esp. compared to Silent Shout) that no-one listens to it any more

because who's going to remember Simon & Garfunkel over Hear'Say?

without you, as immortalised by mariah carey. who can honestly hear "i can't live, if living is without you" by anyone other than mariah carey. even though welsh rockers badfinger wrote it and others (including nilsson and bonnie prince billy) have covered it.

the zuton's valerie as done by amy(last of the summer)winehouse and mark ronson. not my wordds but that of others like the radio and free london papers etc

American Idol - Float On

made more famouser by the Kingsmen

oconnors nothing compares 2 u will be remembered more than the prince orignial

Girl You'll Be A Woman Soon

orignally be Neil (who?) Diamond

which is a reet shame as UO have some very classy tunes of their own. I blame Uma Thurman.

i dislike the way many have had a 'dig' at covering massive attack's classic. elbow, jose gonzales, even newton faulkner, im sure there are others. perhaps its only so irritating because i view the original with such high regard.

the chris tt original is the worst version of this that i've heard and i wouldn't be surprised if more people have heard frank turner cover it than have heard the original.

by a generation anyway.
