Let's here them.
For me, even though at 35 I would be considered a bit too young for it.
Only you - The flying Pickets.
Dunno why, but I kinda dig the A cappella twist.
Discuss Odd Covers you actually prefer over original song. in the TC Media area at TalkCeltic.net.

You can’t name a cracking tune, then not provide a link :40: , from back in the day I was 16 Christ am getting old :(
I can mind as a young lad discovering this was a cover and that lead me to paying more attention to Elvis.
ps same applies for you -
My nomination would be the cover version of Suspicious Minds that the FYC done, it’s superb IMO, just ignore the video :giggle1:

You're right. I somehow thought Johny Cash version was the earliest (should've post it other way round as it's * good cover)TheHappyLoss likes this. -

Slightly controversial with that shout. The original is phenomenal.Artorias likes this.

Some others I thought about
The Damned-Eloise
Captain Sensible - Happy Talk, his version of a famous musical number rather than a cover.
Aztec Camera-Jump
Motley Crue-like a virgin
Any song by Tragedy -
Yeah probably is...Im a big James fan so might be slightly bias......I like the original but i do prefer this version myself.
What i think is an absolute stunning song though is Love and Hate.
I first heard that song in Animal Kingdom series and thought it was one of the best songs i heard in years from this guy.Artorias likes this. -
