As the title says, what are some covers of songs you like more than the original? For me, I really love Jontron's version of Firework by Katy Perry, and Midge Ure's version of The Man Who Sold the World by David Bowie.

I have a few Wake Me Up - Avicii (Piano and Violin Cover) - Jegz and La La La - Naughty Boy ft. Sam Smith (Piano and Violin Cover) - Jegz. I came by listening to his version, when I was searching the web long ago for something which I can't remember. But these music are amazing....I really recommend for you to listen to this music piano cover. Because it soothes you in the most unexpected of ways. I could listen to his music all day. And some that are sweet lullaby. ^-^


here is the links if wanna listen to it.

I found the 1990s version of Blue Monday (Orgy) to be better than the original. The rocking touch really improved the song.

Seal's cover of Fly Like an Eagle was not only a great theme song for Space Jam, but it sounded less psychedelic than the original one.

If we can include video game music in the lot, then the orchestrated version of Aerith's Theme, One-Winged Angel (NOT from the Black Mages) and the piano version of JENOVA and Johnny C Bad all sound better than the original.

I saw the title and immediately thought "All Along the Watchtower" which Jimmy Hendrix did an amazing cover of.

Thinking about if for a second though, I prefer most covers of Bob Dylan's songs to the originals.
Don't get me wrong, I like Dylan, but I think many of his songs lack something musically that other artist capture.
It seems his strength in more in song writing.

janus : I'm with you with the Blue Monday.  It was the first song I thought of that I think, "The second is way better."

The other one is Alien Ant Farm's rendition of Smooth Criminal.  I won't take anything away from Michael Jackson, the King of Pop, who is the most talented musician of my era, but Alien Ant Farm did a great job churching it up, making it more punk, or industrial, or really just good 90s rock and roll compared to the pop version from the 80s.

I looked at some other lists that gave covers better than originals.  I can't say I agree with any of them.

I like the Bluegrass version of "Be are Guest" way better than Disney's. Taylor Swifts earlier songs electro versions. The Acoustic versions of Don't Fear the Reaper.

I really like all the movie and song covers that Lindsey Stirling and Peter Hollens do, especially Hollens. Hollens has this amazing cover of songs from Frozen and it's really really good.

Most people don't realize Metallica's "Whiskey in the Jar" is a cover. That's one of my favorites.
Disturbed does a cover of Judas Priest's "Living After Midnight" that is sick.
I'm blanking out right now, but there's plenty more I should be able to remember :/

Sublime's cover of The Grateful Dead's Scarlet Begonias is far better than the original, and the original was pretty great.

Sigint: A cardboard box? Why are you...?
Snake: I dunno, I was just looking at it, and suddenly, I had this irresistible urge to get inside. No, not just an urge - more than that. It was my destiny to be here; in the box.
Sigint: Destiny...?
Snake: Yeah. And when I put it on, I suddenly got this feeling of inner peace. I can't put it into words. I feel...safe. Like this is where I was meant to be. Like I'd found the key to true happiness. Does that make any sense?
Sigint: Not even a little.
Snake: You should come inside the box...Then you'll know what I mean.
Sigint: Man, I don't wanna know what you mean!

Well there is one cover of This is Halloween from The Nightmare before Christmas. It's much more metal, and I think considering the movies theming I kind of like it more than the movie version.

Quite a few amazing covers. Judas Priest did a great one of the Joan Baez song Diamonds and Rust. Johnny Cash did an amazing cover of Hurt and actually a variety of other songs.
