Original VS Cover...RATE IT!
There are tons of original songs out there from all genre's that bands over the years have covered....
Sometimes these songs are covered more than once as the years go by... by many different artists.
Some covers are better than the original recording....some worse!
Lets see who's version is the best! The original....or the cover!

I'll put up my first choice and rate it to get started.
Song...............You Really Got me
Originally released in 1964 by The Kinks, You Really Got Me was a big hit for the British band The Kinks.
Then in 1978 , American rockers Van Halen released You Really Got Me on there debut album.
The Kinks version https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fTTsY-oz6Go
Van Halen version https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9X6e7uctAww
My take........As original founder of The Kinks, Ray Davies put it himself when asked about it.....comparing our original to what Van Halen did is like comparing a world war one biplane to an F-15 fighter jet.....Van Halen took our song and blew up 1000%....it's just waaay better! And Ray Davies counted himself as a big fan of Van Halen's version.....
And me too!

I shot The Sheriff
Originally recorded by Bob Marley in the early 1970's...I shot The Sheriff was covered by Eric Clapton in 1974
Bob Marley https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2XiYUYcpsT4
Eric Clapton https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tRgcwT9X2J8
I will admit that I'm really conflicted saying this because I'm a huge Bob Marley fan....but I like Clapton's version better
What do y'all think???

Or maybe it is lol...i might of missed something ...im going to try and avoid that kinda comparison ..and enjoyed the attempt or merit of the cover if any mainly because there is a thread on like this about rating the song above you and its not good at all for that reason ? Anyway you can do what you like thanks for music nice cover.
