Stoffel76 Posted November 26, 2014 Share Better than Tina, by a looooooooong shot. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gpqz3cdVPLMMy 3 year old daughters favourite song right now... but because a Tina version is used at the end of the movie Flushed Away (also one of her favourites). And as I have a CCR cd in the car, every morning on the way to crèche I hear "Can we listen to Flushed Away daddy?" from the back of the car. We had a great sing-along this morning...

Stoffel76 Posted November 26, 2014 Share I wouldn't exactly run out an buy their album, but in terms of improving on the original, Vanilla Sky vastly improved Rihanna's Umbrella... (although the same can't be said for the music video... )... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TvC6VS4Np4U Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chro Mo Posted November 26, 2014 Share I'm not sure if it's better than the original but a fitting tribute. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wwmUMvhy-lYPink is good, but Janis Joplin rules this cover: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wyatt Earp Posted November 26, 2014 Share Joni Mitchel could write songs but her vocals suck balls.These guys pretty much now this. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ylW6sC6NNhY Blokman 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andymann Posted November 26, 2014 Share Yeah, very good. The original, however, is to my mind the greatest vocal thing ever done. Put on a good set of headphones, and play the original acoustic version, just to yourself. Yoh.http://youtu.be/55s3T7VRQSc The best of both worlds - especially at 2:27.....
