    Gillian Welch - Orphan Girl Vs Leonard Cohen – Hallelujah – Orphan Girl is another great discovery. I have never heard this song before - covered or original! I prefer some of the covers of Hallelujah to its original.

    Betty Hutton - It's oh so Quiet Vs The Skyliners - Since I Don't Have You - ABSTAIN - not mad about either and I could not pick which I would prefer.

    Lord Creator - King & Queen (Babylon) Vs Screamin Jay Hawkins - I Put a Spell on You

    Yazoo - Only You Vs Joni Mitchell - Big Yellow Taxi - This was a tough one and it could have gone either way, but I think the first has the haunting factor.

    Tom Cochrane - Life is a Highway Vs Bob Dylan - I'll Be Your Baby Tonight - Much better than it's cover.

    Randy And The Rainbows - Denise Vs The Arrows - I love rock and roll. First time hearing the original version. I’m not sure if I prefer this or Blondie’s cover, but they are both good. I was never mad about the other song (original or covered).

    I don't like that version of IPASOY.

    Yazoo - Only You Vs Joni Mitchell - Big Yellow Taxi

    I had that Yazoo song in my Walrus and it came last in the category.

    Tom Cochrane - Life is a Highway Vs Bob Dylan - I'll Be Your Baby Tonight

    I don't like either song.

    Randy And The Rainbows - Denise Vs The Arrows - I love rock and roll

    My nomination.
