I am not fond of country music, but for some reason, I found in my collection an album by Roy Clark. On it is the song, Yesterday, When I was Young. I have listened to it over and over...and subsequently the other songs on the album. I am thinking this is a remake but maybe not. Anyway, I want to put in a vote for it. Fantastic!!!
Cover songs that are better than the originals.
There is an active thread about terrible cover songs so I thought I'd start one about cover songs that are better than or have completely eclipsed the originals. I'll start:
Randy Newman wrote Momma Told Me Not to Come for Eric Burdon who recored it with the Animals and Newman recorded it too. I have the Newman version and like it but Three Dog Night really seem to capture the mood of the song best in my opinion.
