Whereas Hüsker Dü's version of Love Is All Around is far superior to the original.
Have people seen the video? They go to the same place in Minneapolis where Mary threw her hat into the air (Nicolette Mall, IIRC).
Do you see any goats around? No, because I sacrificed them.

Buffista Music 4: Needs More Cowbell!
There's a lady plays her fav'rite records/On the jukebox ev'ry day/All day long she plays the same old songs/And she believes the things that they say/She sings along with all the saddest songs/And she believes the stories are real/She lets the music dictate the way that she feels.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!
I thought the three of them threw hats in the air in that video, but all I could find was this: [link]

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
Siouxsie's cover of "The Passenger" -- although I can't really tell whether it's better, or just tied too deeply to too many bone-deep memories for the original, which I first heard many years after the cover, to gain any purchase.
And the Indigo Girls' cover of "Uncle John's Band."

I heard Iggy's original version first. I love both versions muchly and equally.

Because books.
And the Indigo Girls' cover of "Uncle John's Band."
Oh, that's a lovely one! Their voices are so perfect for it.
On that same album is Dr. John's cover of "Deal" which I also love like cake.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here
And the Indigo Girls' cover of "Uncle John's Band."
Oh, I love this one! I also love their cover of "Romeo and Juliet", but I am not sure I could say it is better than Dire Straits.

I don't think I've ever heard their cover. And now I'm sitting at my desk misting up and getting weepy just thinking about the original. That right there is a song, I tell you what.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.
I have a liking for the Corr's cover of "Dreams". At a different speed, Spiderbait's "Black Betty".
And at a very different speed, D.A.A.S. doing "Stairway To Heaven" with barry Crocker, and Rolf Harris covering "I Touch Myself".
