    Bowie's the clear winner there (though I prefer the Nirvana version over that even).

    UB40's version of Red Red Wine is what I listened to first, so I'm partial to that one over the Neil Diamond version.

    Nobody beats Sonny and Cher. Nobody.

    It's interesting; I actually have the UB-40 version of Red Red Wine on my Ipod, and had no idea it was covered from an earlier Neil Diamond version until my dad was in my car and told me so. And yeah, there's only one version of I Got You Babe; and that's Sonny And Cher's version. Unless you might want to count Beavis and Buttheads' (with Cher).


    Todd posted a Marilyn Manson cover of Sweet Dreams earlier. Here's another cover that he did for, "Tainted Love". It was made for the movie, "Not Another Teen Movie". And oh yeah, kids ask your parents permission before watching.

    I don't think either version is better than the original.

    Heard a good one on the radio today.



    Bonus short film version




    Smooth Criminal is pretty much my favorite MJ song, but I am a fan of Alien Ant Farm's version as well. It's hard to compare the two; MJ is a master performer, and his version is just oozing with the swagger he was famous for. That said, Alien Ant Farm's version stands out well amongst their discography.

    I was recently made aware of this cover...




    ...of this original



    The difference is LOL-tastic, in my opinion.

    I think the cover realized there was a good, funkier number buried in there waiting to come out.
