    First, I love the PJ versions, but they are not better than The Who versions.

    Pete > Mike and Stone put together
    Roger > Ed
    The Ox > Everyone
    Drums we will call a toss up. Moon isn't everyone's cup of tea and we won't even talk about Kenny or Zac or whoever.

    But, my answer to the OP is anything and everything written by Bob Dylan by pretty much anyone.
    Sorry. The world doesn't work the way you tell it to.

    sorry if this has been discussed:

    i really think johnny cash's version of hurt is 1000x better than the original by NIN. the song has new meaning with his interpretation. cash is an old man with a lot of demons and personal troubles. you can tell that he wishes he could start again, a million miles away.
    powerful.

    I have to say "No Quarter" by Tool

    Originally done by Led Zeppelin.
    Probably one of the Best cover songs of All time!

    A Bold statement I know, but it's undeniable!

    Give the two a listen and you be the judge. :)

    heard both plenty of times and i choose zep hands down.

    The Zeppelin version is much, much better.

    Zeppelin is one of the all-time greats. We can give Zeppelin the edge for writing the song, but Tool remastered it to sound better in my opinion. I'll side with the op for this one.
