A toughy.Both covers better than the originals.
Lula even had a better version of the man who sold the world.

Cobain was like another popular "singer" on here; neither could carry a note in a bucket. And even if he could sing, both Bowie and Lulu did versions that were infinitely better. Whereas Roxy Music was one of those rare cases where a cover version is better than the original.

Two great songs but I'm going with Roxy Music as it was Bryan Ferry's tribute to John Lennon and seeing as I love lennon's music it was a no brainer.

Wow. By far the toughest choice so far. I’m going to go Cobain because of how iconic this whole performance was (Unplugged as a record might be Nirvana’s best work, and it was all off-the-cuff) and this is my favo(u)rite from the evening (closely followed by “Lake of Fire” — Meat Puppets a very underrated band) but Jealous Guy wins for me against most anything else.

Couldn’t argue with anyone picking either — two brilliant selections — kudos to our contributors.

One of the most underrated singers from these shores.
Some great stuff from the 60's and early 70's.

 

[MellowJoe]

Both alright, but I'm more likely to play Jealous guy so I went for that. I thought Starsailors cover of it was good too

I agree, I know exactly who Lulu is. I’m almost 66 yrs of age. However, to suggest her version of TMWSTW is superior to Bowie’s is ridiculous.

Couldn't agree more @jimharri (apart from the bit in bold)............ ;-)
