Default What one song do you like better than its original?
You've Got A Friend by James Taylor. I love the Carole King version too, but his vocal touches my heart more.

Sheryl Crow covering Sweet Child O Mine by Guns N Roses. I love them but never liked that song until she covered it.

Dixie Chicks' cover of Patty Griffin's 'Top of the World." I think it's the strings, gives it more depth & feeling for me.
