Everyone knows cover songs rule...

Eh, well not all of them. But sometimes they do in fact rule.

Even if musical taste is subjective, as i often try and attest, sometimes you cant ignore a good cover version of a song, sometimes improving it, sometimes sounding just as good if not better with someone else's sound.



For instance there is this song:



It's a bit out there, but then someone covered it. It was put on a ad for Sony, and the rest is chart history.




But then there are non-comercial covers, ie the wonderous sanctioned performance's of Radio 1's Live Lounge.

Stronger by Kanye West (with a massive Daft Punk Sample)

Become's Stronger by 30 Seconds to Mars



That is all.
