At the London Telegraph. Jimi Hendrix gets the #1 nod for "All Along The Watchtower," as he clearly should. Even Dylan has said that when he plays "Watchtower" now, he feels like he's covering Hendrix.

Sid Vicious gets #3 for Sinatra's "My Way," but gets bonus points from me because it was used in a Buffy episode one time ("Lover's Walk," Season Three). It's hella good.

A lot of these, I totally had no idea were covers. "Respect"? "Tainted Love"? "Twist and Shout"? Weird.

Blog Discussion Question: Some have argued that for a cover to be truly great, it must supplant the original in the cultural consciousness. Do you agree with this remark? Why or why not?
