Ryan Tubridy has started this mornings programme with "With a little help from my friends", saying thatit is better than the original ( The Beatles). How about starting a list of songs where the cover is better than the original?

I wouldn't saw the cover is better than the original, but I'd definitely say it was the most original cover of a song that I've ever heard. Scissor Sisters' version of Pink Floyd's Comfortably Numb.
"Strike me flamin' handsome!!!" - Alf Stewart
His body is only a fuel tank for his micky - a work colleague talking about a fella he knows.

Scissor Sisters' version of Pink Floyd's Comfortably Numb.
is possibly one of the worst cover version ever publicly released
Oasis version of Slades' "Come on feel the noise" is much better than the original.

The reasonable man adapts himself to the world; the unreasonable one persists in trying to adapt the world to himself. Therefore all progress depends on the unreasonable man - George Bernard Shaw
Lisa Hannigan covering Dylan's ''Just like Tom Thumb's Blues'' is one of my favourites at the moment.

"People are broad-minded. They'll accept the fact that a person can be an alcoholic, a dope fiend, a wife beater and even a newspaperman, but if a man doesn't drive, there's something wrong with him." - Art Buchwald
Johnny Cash - Hurt and Jeff Buckley- Hallelujah.
The cover of Tears for Fears "Mad World" - is it used in Donnie Darko or something??
Johnny Cash "One" ( I also heard a version in a pub session in Dunshaughlin in 2002 which was much better than both the original and Johnny Cash's version)

NO, NO, NO!!!!! Nothing can beat Leonard Cohen, imho. The man is a genius and has a voice like an angel on 60 a day.
