BTW Danno, that video of the cover of Shapes of Things above didn’t work for me. I’m guess it’s the Jeff Beck version?

Probably already been thrown out there, but in the world of covers, this is pretty hard to beat, and the only guy who can top Jimmi.
Plus pretty much everything Joe Cocker touched was awesome.

Hey, If Daniela ever shows interest in out of shape, middle aged men, I got first dibs.
If that was not what you were suggesting, then, Nothing to see here. Moving right along.
She does a real nice cover of "Creep" that I almost posted up but I didn't want to freak out Meadow Skipper
I'm also standing by my post of Karl Wallinger/World Party's interpretation of "Long and Winding Road". Really creative and deserves a good sound system.

I think a lotta folks are wholly unaware that Jay-Z's ripper "99 Problems" is actually a cover of an Ice-T joint.
I would say that I am a bigger fan of Ice, but Rick Rubin's block rocking beat on Hova's version is insane.

OK... I think I've got 2 songs that the covers have to be better than the originals (blasphemy!)...
1) Happy Birthday
2) Star Spangled Banner

Slug and Ant have done some pretty stellar covers that pay homage to the rap classics they grew up on...

I suspect there's logic behind the madness, but I'm too dumb to see it.
