steve-bbb Posted July 25, 2012 Share Posted July 25, 2012 some of our american friends might say this is bordering on hipster douchebaggery but i think counting crows made a nice cover of this in comparison the plethora of (imho) lame covers of this out there (this has to rank high in the top ten most covered songs ) [url="http://youtu.be/tvtJPs8IDgU"]http://youtu.be/tvtJPs8IDgU[/url] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

casapete Posted July 25, 2012 Share Posted July 25, 2012 (edited) +1 for Stevie Wonder's version of 'We can work it out'. Also love his version of 'Blowin in the wind'. There have been some great covers done by Motown acts, often (IMO) challenging the originals - 'I heard it through the grapevine' by Marvin Gaye (Gladys Knight) and 'Its all in the game' by the Four Tops (Tommy Edwards). Love 'em. Edited July 30, 2012 by casapete Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
