Sorry about the video but anyway forgot about this gem remake until I heard it on the radio yesterday.

I love the original but I love this version a tad more and the video actually goes a bit more along with the message and yes like others I'm sure songs that have a message that relates to their lives stick a little closer.

I don't even really like country or Johnny Cash, but his version of Hurt is superior to NIN

Johnny just owned whatever he sang, a true legend.

Thumbs up on can't you see, a push on the Gin Blossoms Rocket Man (and that's still impressive) and I don't think I'd like any version of the first song you posted. 🤜🤛

Petty's "Won't back down" comes to mind, but I guess I'm not that plugged in to their work together. What other stuff did they do?

lots of great songs pretty much right up to the end.

cmd & Qman,
Thanks for posting the Rival Sons & HSAS covers. Wonderful songs to begin with. Killer versions.

Whether they're better can be open for debate, but here are some favorite covers of mine:
Mountain "Masters Of War" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ERur4grAN7Q
Pantera "The Badge" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Cqh8Qn46JW0
Guns N' Roses "Ain't It Fun" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aqURaeKaA_o
All the Metallica covers from the 80's to the early 90's--Garage Days, "Stone Cold Crazy", "Breadfan"
Thin Lizzy's "Whiskey in a Jar"--It's not the classic definition of a cover considering it's an old Irish drinking song. I'll still count it, though.
Skid Row "What You're Doing" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sPsG7n10_QI
Bobaflex "Hey You" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rm5eWLXW6l4 I'm not much of a Bobaflex fan, but they ABSOLUTELY nail this!
Black Label Society "I Never Dreamed" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c3NaBONABpY
House Of Lords "Can't Find My Way Home" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lj66pOiOUMk
Jonah Carden "Children Of The Grave" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j3lFbRRb-u0 Send some love to one of my best friends.
"The Highwayman" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kUiruraJAno
"Clean My Wounds" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uWEK1dOrm7Y

I really like COC's Clean My Wounds...I just listened to a short bit at the beginning, of the one you linked. That has a haunting sound to it, but I think I'd really like it. I'll have to check it out when I have more time.

Gary Jule's cover of Mad World is better than the Tears for Fears original, IMHO.
