Personally I like Oasis version the most. Like how melodic they made it. Marilyn Manson never does bad covers ofc.

    Stereophonics
    I'm a big fan of Soundgarden, U2, and Oasis (and once was a big Crue fan) but I think the Stereophonics version is how it's supposed to be done.

    Oasis
    Not a big fan of the song nor Oasis but of all of these covers, that one was the most listenable for me.

    I also voted for u2.  Maybe its because it's my first.   Heard it at a young age before I ever learned to appreciate the beatles.

    Charles Manson stole this song from The Beatles, now we're stealin' it back!

    I think I like the Oasis one the best. Maybe Stereophonics.
