Re: What song covers do you prefer to the original?

I don't think I could actually recall all of them, but I will try dig up some:

"Sometimes When We Touch" by Newton - one of those flash-in-the-pan artists in the early 90s who tried to break into music with a cover song but disappeared almost immediately.

"I Can't Help Falling In Love With You" by the UB40. It's a bit more upbeat and jazz-style than Elvis.

"What Hurts The Most" by Cascada. Another case of an upbeat version. I honestly can't listen to the original because it's too sad.

"Total Eclipse of the Heart" by Westlife, though I do like the original as well, so it's much of a muchness.

"Eternal Flame" by Human Nature, but that is partly due to a legacy fondness for Human Nature, who are an Australian doo-wop group.

"Help Me If You Can" by John Farnham - he's an Australian singer. His version is done in a lot slower ballad form compared to the Beatles version, and while the Beatles version is not bad, I really first came to know the John Farnham version first.

"Night On Bald Mountain" by Apocalyptica. It's classical music, played on cellos, like it's heavy metal.

There are probably more but those are the ones I can recall right now.
