            • Most covers are worse than the original, but there are rare exceptions. IMO:

              Divinyls 'Ill make you happy' > Easybeats
              Psuedo Echo 'Funkytown' => Lipps Inc (or a tie at the very least)
              The Byrds 'Mr Tambourine Man' >>>>> Dylan version
              The Angels 'We gotta get outa this place' => The Animals (just)

                    Agree with that list and happy you said a tie at very least for Funky Town, both Lipps Inc and Psuedo Echo's are very different but both are great, love both of them.
                    Yes also We Gotta Get Out Of This Place, both The Angels and The Animals are excellent.

                      You've lost that lovin feelin - Long John Baldry.and Cathy McDonald's was better than the original Righteous Bros, which was better than Mavericks and Goose.

                      Angel of the morning - Juice Newton's cover was superior to the original.
