As a general rule the first heard arrangement of a song is the best.Has anyone got covers which was better than the original or first heard.Example _ Personal Jesus by Depeche Mode improved by Marilyn Manson.

Prefer the Depeche Mode original myself.
Quo's take on SBYBIL, although slated by many, is nevertheless a vast improvement on earlier versions IMO. There's an old thread on here about it somewhere.

Roadhouse Blues! First heard Quo's version and to me it will always be the best!

EVERY cover on Famous in the Last Century is FAR superior to the original.
Oh, wait, got that the wrong way round....

Has anyone got covers which was better than the original or first heard.Example _ Personal Jesus by Depeche Mode improved by Marilyn Manson. Where do i start? There are oodles of them. From the top of my head. Whiskey In The Jar - Thin Lizzy All Along The Watchtower, Hey Joe - Jimi Hendrix Good Morning Little School Girl - Ten Years After I Just Want To Make Love To You - Foghat It Ain't Me Babe, Mr. Tambourine Man - The Turtles Statesboro Blues - Allman Brothers

And this, to me one of the ultimate covers that many people don't even realise it wasn't the original.
And on his final tour before his untimely death.

Covers I consider the best/prefered version of the song would include:
I Just Want To Make Love To You - Sensational Alex Harvey Band Delilah - SAHB Jealous Guy - Frankie Miller Walk On By - The Stranglers Get Down & Get With It - Slade I Heard It Through The Grapevine - Creedence Clearwater Revival
Just a few off the top of my head

Motorhead - Enter Sandman. Prefer Lemmy's version any time over the original Metallica one.
