Blinded by the light by Manfred Manns Earthband. It was good, but not as good as the original by Springsteen.

Jealous Guy - Roxy Music

Classic. Second best song they ever did behind Oh Yeah.

Extreme Noise Terror - Borstal Breakout

Just listened to them both 'back to back' to refresh my memory

Stones musical backing was far superior, but Farlowe knocks Jagger into a cocked hat with the vocals

Joe Cocker - 'With a little help from my friends'

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

Feeling Good - Muse

Made all the better by Sky using it as the outro to the 2003 playoff final.

Sandie Shaw did a truly great version of Sympathy For The Devil.
