The song "Black Betty" has been recorded by about 20 different artist/bands but none hold a candle to Ram Jam's version and that's just the simple truth.
"People get Ready" has been recorded by Eva Cassidy (she kills it vocally and plays it with a slightly faster tempo), Rod Stewart meh..ok, and Curtis Mayfield.
Curtis Mayfield knocks it clean out of the park.
"Smooth Criminal" by MJ is awesome but Alien Ant Farm is right there with him on this one imo....Tie. AAF, killed it though.
I recently listened to a very good remake of Paul Simon's "Diamond on the Soles of her Shoes" featuring Alanna Boudreau.
Absolute worst remake/cover of ALL time is when Metallica ruined "Turn the Page"...Not sure what they were thinking but that was horrible!!
