Covers performed better than the original......

[Stretch]

Terrible

 

The original Dolly Parton version is much better.

 

For the definitive cover version, check out the White Stripes on youtube (has been posted on this thread some time ago).

This is a song that you will battle to get better than... But the white stripes version does come close

Nice to see Paul Simon himself giving a thumbs up to Disturbed's cover of Sound Of Silence

If you can get your hands on a copy of the original mockumentary of the quintessential british heavy metal band, Bad News, then it's certainly with a guffaw or three.

 

Features Rik Mayall, Ade Edmondson and Nigel Planer of 'the Young Ones' fame.

I absolutely loved this when I first heard it, and still do enjoy it, don't get me wrong... but have found myself noticing the flaws in it the more I listen to it. The autotuning, some weaker vocal moments etc, but yeah, some of the raw bits are still absolutely brilliant.

I guess what I'm saying, is I reckon they probably could do it even better still.

 

Another version, well worth a listen : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q4oInT79CUk&nohtml5=False

This vid could do with a rework, even it it does lead the emotions really well, but I really love this girls voice
