For many an original song that they love cannot and will not ever be duplicated by a cover, but there are many songs that have been done equally (debatebly) well by others..

So do you have favorites?

 

What are your favorite covers of favorite songs?

      Cover of Fleetwood Mac - The Chain by Harry Styles

      https://youtu.be/eM_FR7I2Ttw

       

      And here he is performing with Fleetwood Mac. Notice the crowd reaction when they hear the opening riff and realize it really is Mac. The video was shot by a fan, so not the best quality, but it's the only one I could find.

        @MaVolta The crowds reaction was priceless! And Harry looks like a kid in a candy store, totally having fun! I can tell you, from seeing the Mac in concert three times, twice they opened with The Chain and when the first riffs start with Mick then Lindsey on guitar continues, it almost made my heart stop! Lindsey is out of this world, I don’t know how the song can ever sound the same w/o him 😢

                        The Monkees' cover of Paul Revere and the Raiders' "Kicks," because Micky puts a twist of irony into the singing
