Superchunk version is as good but not better. I like how driving and icy the original is.

That Anberlin cover is pointless. Doesn't improve on perfection, it's just a band covering a song.

"Police On My Back" is an awesome cover.

I concur with the first part but I think Aretha Franklin's Respect might have the second place spot.

I had a big argument just last week with a guy who said Train's cover "Ramble On" was better than the original.

No

I'm very pro-Beatles but Joe's versions are more inneresting to me.

To be completely forthright, I think both songs are crap. It's more or less picking turds with or without corn husks in them.
