It's far easier to come up with shit covers than good ones. Jay O'Haitchenn has got it right though, although I really liked the original as well. Gonzalez butchered Tear Drop, as did that Faulkner bloke, and Florence, imo, butchered You've Got The Love.

This is perhaps at least decent. Better? Dunno.

Love The Cure, but  prefer this version.

I'll continue with the Soft Cell theme from earlier though.

I'll refrain from including Carter's cover of 'Rent' then.

I like cover versions in general, but some songs should be left alone.

My contribution, covering Bowie is rarely a good idea but this is an exception:



I await Sutton's biblical judgement.

Tis a very good version I like it, but it's not better than Bowie. Beats Lulu though!

Not really in the spirit of it all as I love the Billy Bragg version and all, but the thread needs this song.
