Cover > Original? Buh?

ON the topic of live ones... when I went to see Velvet Revolver in January they did a cover of Mr. Brownstone... know it's kinda cheating since 3 out of 5 band members are ex GnR anyway, but I thought it sounded way better with Scott Weiland singing.
Even my GnR hating best friend thought it was fantastic.

The Red House Painters cover of "Silly Love Songs" beat up the original version by Wings so hard that Paul McCartney still can't pee straight.

Well, Wings sucked, so that isn't too hard to do.

--- Quote from: ucfgeek ---Most of the songs on the Tori Amos album "Strange Little Girls".
Especially the cover of "97' Bonnie & Clyde" - orig. by Emenem

The Eminem cover is fucking wicked! It's remarkably creepy with her vocals. I've never actually heard the original, but since it's Eminem, I'm gonna go out on a limb and say Tori Amos' version is better. :)
In related news, I was in the music store the other day and saw a Warren Zevon tribute album. I think it was called Enjoy Every Sandwich. Has anybody heard it? I'm curious as to what the quality of the covers are like. The Pixies have a song on there (forget which one), and Adam Sandler does "Werewolves of London" (don't know how to feel about that).
Mnementh:
Speaking of Warron Zevon. I like the cover of Raspberry Beret that Hindu Love Gods (Warron Zevon on vocals backed by R.E.M.) better than the Prince version.
