MY 30 FAVORITE COVERS OF AWESOME SONGS

What does a great song do? Makes a singer or Band, true. Becomes memorable to generations, true. A standard of a iconic style, also true. Also, many many others do their spin on a particular song. The shine of the sun might just a second or fifth time. This is not counting who wrote the piece, just who sang it. And sometimes that makes all the difference. The change of the lyrics; voice; tone; the pitch or just the mood flips everythings into a new kind of speical. This list is fun albums; videos and live concerts. All I have found on youtube or spotify. I am listing both the originator of the song and my favorite cover. Shocker, I will also declare which it the best of the two.
