Not so much a topic for minis, but more the music on Wednesday evenings – how about a night of cover versions?

Which covers are better than their originals? I love Nena’s 99 red balloons but there’s no doubting that Goldfinger did an absolutely stunning version of it. Me First and the Gimmees have put out some brilliant covers of all kinds of genres. The Wildhearts version of Understanding Jane puts the original to shame.

[btw anyone covering a Bob Dylan song obviously doesn’t count – as well respected as he may be as a song-writer, I don’t think there isn’t a Dylan song that isn’t improved by someone who can actually sing covering it 😉 – ducks for cover ]
