songs that are covers songs you did not know about

Met the singer from World of Twist in a boozer near Maine Rd, brief chat during which I mentioned that "Shes a rainbow" was their best tune.
I got away with it with the lads as a cruel put down, but I didnt have a clue.

I always say the original is best... but not this one.

I've enjoyed this, but I can not put the vids up ( useless old git ) but my offering will be Wild Nights Van Morrison covered by John Mellencamp. The cougars version is better in my opinion

'Somebody's gonna get their head kicked in tonight' was originally done in 1969 by Fleetwood Mac (under the name Earl Vince & The Valients).

Covered by various bands. Most famous cover is perhaps by the Rezillos.

Agree, great song, personally thought Robert Plant did it justice
