About once a year, I post a question along these lines and it’s time again.

What cover songs do you consider to be the canonical versions even though they are covers?

Examples (IMHO):

Jimi’s All Along the Watchtower over Dylan’s version

Stevie Ray Vaughan’s instrumental cover of Little Wing over Jimi’s version

Madeline Peyroux’s jazz version of You’re Gonna Make Me Lonesome When You Go over Dylan’s version.

What can you add to the list? And do you agree with mine?

What is it about Depeche Mode’s Ice Machine and its covers/tributes (like Alien 6 or Royksopp/Susanne Sundfor) that makes me to listen to this track over and over? Speaking of covers, I noticed that all music is now recycled… I guess many musicians ran out of ideas or follow new market trend. Just heard Alice Cooper’s “Poison” cover on the radio… But some tributes are great, like Nightwishe’s “High Hopes” or some DIO, Iron Maiden covers…#depechemode #coversongs #nightwish #dio #IronMaiden
