I want to write a few posts in which I'll show some music clips of original songs together with their covers. The idea is I'll post songs I really like a whole lot which nonetheless have covers that I like even more.
To start it off, here's an old (1970) song called Planet Caravan by Black Sabbath.
A very good song and I've always loved it. So when I heard its 1994 cover by (an otherwise dreadful) band Pantera, I was surprised by how much better it became.
This is an example of a cover that's better even though it's very close to the original; but it's not always the case. I'll post some superior covers that sound almost like the original (only better), as well as some that sound nothing like the source.
