Another remake that surpassed the original (by Leon Russell) was Karen Carpenter's "This Masquerade". She owns that song and I consider it far better than George Benson's version which did win the Grammy.

I Only Have Eyes for You.... The Flamingos

I Only Have Eyes for You.... Art Garfunkel

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yrl3T8MaX8E

Both versions have a nice “dreamy” atmosphere to them. The Flamingos win but Garfunkel does a fine job on it.

Bananarama’s covers of “Venus” and “Aie a Mwana” were better than the original. Tatu’s cover of “How Soon is Now?” is a better song than the original. So is Pet Shop Boys’ “Always on My Mind” and Basia’s “Till you Come Back to Me.” I’m thinking the trend today is less covers and more samples, which I find to be an overdone practice.

I think that Phil Collins version of, “You can’t Hurry Love”,” is better than the Supremes.

I liked Ricky Van Shelton’s version of “Statue Of A Fool” more than the original by Jack Greene.

I prefer the original “Gloria” by Umberto Tozzi, the original “Crazy” by Seal and the original “Baby I Love Your Way” by Peter Frampton. I like the cover of “Iko Iko” from the movie “Rain Man.” I like both versions of “Do it Again” by Steely Dan and Paul Hardcastle. I like Tom Tom Club’s version of “Under the Boardwalk.”
