I gotta agree. Tom's original performance of the song feels so heartfelt and genuine compared to the Eagles version

My local alternative station loves playing that awful cover for whatever reason. Also this one.

I have no idea why this version is more popular than the original and it irritates me that people mistake it for an original song written by Antony

>Bowie said of Nirvana's cover: "I was simply blown away when I found that Kurt Cobain liked my work, and have always wanted to talk to him about his reasons for covering 'The Man Who Sold the World' and that "it was a good straight forward rendition and sounded somehow very honest. It would have been nice to have worked with him, but just talking with him would have been real cool".[17] Bowie called Nirvana's cover "heartfelt," noting that "until this [cover], it hadn't occurred to me that I was part of America's musical landscape. I always felt my weight in Europe, but not [in the US]."[18]

I like the Hunky Dory version of this song more

either way, Nirvana's version blasts Bowie's out of the water

Johnny Cash's cover of Hurt.

Decent enough cover, my problem is with the Johnny Cash fans. Huge fucking jerk offs.

Placebo butchering Her Majesty Kate Bush's Running up that Hill into an emo circlejerk

Linkin Park's cover of Wish and Asking Alexandra' cover of Closer. Poor Reznor can't get a break from these jerkoffs.

I had a friend who insisted that his version of Hurt and Rusty Cage were the originals. I wanted to strangle him.

Anyone else think this is better than the original?

>>65046194

Yeah, Neo-Cash fans are the worst sort. They purposefully go to the original song videos and screech about how much Cash was better. It's fine to have that opinion (I guess, I don't share it at all), but is it necessary to be so obnoxious about it?

Still better than Buckley's overblown, emotional porn version. Certainly not among Cohen's best songs though.
