Best cover song? 23:09 - Jan 15 with 503 views

No agenda here, just a revisit of a music thread I recall doing back in the day. Let's start with what you consider to be a top cover of a classic song. I have loads on my list, but to kick things off, here's my first contribution.

For those not familiar with how it works, just find what you want on YouTube, click "Share", copy the link and post it here.

Not sure whether it classifies as a classic song or not but this is one of my favourite covers.

Poll:

How many polls will Leadbelly do this season?

I'm going to throw in a curveball - The Verve's Bitter Sweet Symphony

For years the Rolling Stones were receiving the royalties as it was deemed to be too much like the orchestral version of The Last Time. The dispute was finally resolved in 2019, 22 years after its release - https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/ent

I love the song, as do my boys who call it 'bumping people' after watching the video many times. I'm tempted to go see Richard Ashcroft at Castle Park this summer.

We’ve all heard the cover versions of these, but who remembers the originals?

Never heard that second one by Kerala Dust - magnificent!

Here's my next suggestion, and they had the balls (or not) to perform it for the legends themselves.

One more, and given this is a football message board, I'm going to count this as a cover. Hibs had just beaten Rangers 3-2 in the 2016 Scottish Cup Final - man, I wish we had an anthem like this.
