  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,171 ✭✭✭Declan A Walsh


    Prince - I Feel For You - Prefer Chaka Khan's version

    Depeche Mode - Personal Jesus - This gets my vote. Great song. Johnny Cash's cover is not bad but Depeche Mode's version cannot be matched.

    Laura Branigan - I found Someone

    Still running to give all songs a chance though we know the winner here.

    I will put up the next match, which could be the match of the qualifiers imo.

    The Source & Candi Staton - You Got the Love

    Great song, but the cover is better known now


    How does GnR qualify? Clearly that's the definitive version of the song, I don't think I know any covers


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 87,485 ✭✭✭✭JP Liz V1


    Guns N Roses - Sweet Child O' Mine

    I always say Sweet Child of Mine in the good old days of out on a sesh and it came on :o:(

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,941 ✭✭✭✭ShaneU


    Who covered Sweet Child of mine? We're supposed to be looking for the lesser known versions here.

    Apparently Sheryl Crow did, "Rolling Stone readers named it the fourth worst cover song of all-time."

    Don't be giving me ideas :D


    Just on what songs qualified for this tournament. Any original song that was covered (studio recording)

    I can't veto songs by saying they are more or less famous or better. you guys will decide that
