I have heard (and like) the original by Genesis but I prefer this version.

EDIT: I decided it would be a good idea to post the original as well:

I think I posted this last cover song thread, but here it is again.


I think Metallica's original is pretty great too, but hey, it happens.

NOFX does a cover of Gin and Juice I like and Goldfinger's cover of 99 Red Balloons is also really good.

I like Nirvana's cover of David Bowie's the Man Who Sold The World... I like the more natural feel of Nirvana's performance...<.<

also their cover of Love Buzz by Shocking Blue... But it's hard to compare the two they are completely different...<.<

This cover of Justice's One Minute to Midnight was fucking epic. Too bad their soundboard recordings clip the bass so much, but suffice it to say it was pulsing. The guitar and percussion adds something to it, IMO.



Also, I'm thanking the Hell out of whoever posted the recording, it is most fortunate.

Cover:

Original:

And if we're going the other way, the original version of "Stayin' Alive" is better than Ozzy Osbourne's cover version.

EDIT: Beaten to the punch.

Dinosaur Jr's cover of Just Like Heaven by The Cure. I'm not sure which one I like more though.

Personally, I think Apocalyptica is better than Metallica.
Saw them live from the front row. They were amazing.

OT:
I love this version.

A few of my favorite covers:
I have no idea who originally did this song, but this is the fourth version I've heard.
I found the original hilarious, and this version more so.
