Music remakes you think better than original
July 1, 2019 at 5:36 pm
Some would argue "I Will Always Love You" by Whitney Houston was better than Dolly Parton.
But here are two Pat Benatar songs I think are better than the originals.
Originally done by John Cougar "I Need a Lover" ....
And what I personally think was a far better version of the Beatles "Helter Skelter"..

And, FYI, the word is 'cover', not 'remake'.

Billy Idol, but who was the original? I agree Billy Idol was far better.
Tommy James and the Shondells.

Didn't answer because I wasn't interested in playing another one of your stupid fucking trivia games.

Kinda cool the way that video makes that song even more irritatingly pretentious than the original.
