Please post examples where you think the remix, remake or cover of a song is way better, superior in every shape and form, to the original.

With all the fx, amp and synth emulations out there, not to mention AI, you can finally sound like…? Someone else and something that has already been done! -------

Dunno how the Stranglers managed to make that classic song dirty and aggressive but very musical at the same time?

Moby is often pretty cheesey, but I think this is one of his best. First time I heard it, it took me a wee while to notice it was Roxy Music. A very good cover that takes it in a completely different direction. Maybe not better in every single way, as nobody can warble like Ferry unless you've got your lower testicle trapped in a zip, but I think this one has more feeling.

I quite like that Sundays version. Mind you, it's not difficult to sound better than Jagger. He's a bit like Dylan in that he writes some great songs but should get other people to sing them because he's so crap himself.
The Bauhaus one - nah, too much like the original. Bowie in leather instead of velveteen.

I like the original versions of both songs, but very partial to the covers, mostly because they were featured tracks on the soundtrack to my late teens/early 20s

A couple more, although I’m not sure if I prefer the Inkubus Sukkubus version over the Stones’ version of Paint it Black, or if my previous obsession with Candia biased my judgment
