Greatest Cover Songs?

[sams dad]

How many more times ?.

Walk On By - The Stranglers

Is the clear winner

7 minute version - White vinyl with Blacak & White album.

I beg to differ US . I think you will find that Isaac Hayes cover of Walk On By is the
superior version

 

[chez]

eh?


(i'm not actually tony yeboah btw)

Because of his views on people like Tony Yeboah. Please don't read if easily offended. These are lyrics to a song he has sung although don't think he done the original.

Rolf aledges that he had never heard Stairway to Heaven before he recorded this, he did it all from the sheet music.

As it was Rolf I believe him, Robert Plant, alledgedly, loved this version.

 

[Hiney]

Joe Cocker's glorious version of With A Little Help From My Friends.

Johnny Cash has never performed that song, it is an error on the part of some lyrics sites. It is performed by someone called Johnny Rebel, which is probably where the error occurred.
