Nirvana - The Man Who Sold The World. Arguably not better but what a good version.

As I get older I think a lot about the hereafter - I go into a room and then wonder what I'm here after.

Inside every old person is a young person wondering what the hell happened.

Orianthi (Panagiris) does very few covers. This is one of the few.
Her forte is the guitar rather than singing.

Bit of a struggle with Q. This may not be better than the original but it's not a bad fist.

Queens of the Stone Age - Paranoid

I'll give that a miss as I never liked it and can't stand QOTSA.

I bought the 'Paranoid' LP, way back in the middle ages. Took it back the next day, the lady behind the counter asked what was matter with it, meaning physical defects.
I said it was horrible and she said 'I agree' and gave me my money back.

I Wanna Be Your Man by The Rolling Stones.

I knew that the Stones used a Beatles song but I didn't think it had been recorded by The Beatles and therefore wouldn't have been a cover. But I was wrong! I'll post both versions, see which you prefer.

But is the one by PP Arnold an original or a cover? (She bought it for thirty quid but Cat Stevens sang it on a later album).

I would go for Sheryl Crow as she is much better looking than Rod Stewart.

On my perusal of the T's one of my Tom Petty Tracks American Girl came up, and Taylor Swift's cover of it. Nothing beats the original on American Girl front...not even my new found appreciation of Taylor! so didnt trouble the scorers with that suggestion :-D
