    Jimi Hendrix did "All along the watchtower" so much better than that poofta Bob Dylan and The Sex Pistols put a bunch of energy into "I did it my way". Robert Plant shined up "If I were a carpenter" and Led Zep sharpened up Joan Baez's (sp) "Babe I'm gonna leave you" no end.

    It was Sid Vicious solo that did My Way wasnt it.?: after they broke up (though I think Steve Jones and Paul Cook are on it)

    not convinced.

    heres the original: not sure the cover adds much, though the guitar player is good, and the vocal is an obviously heartfelt tribute...

    (by the way, dont confuse the band currently touring and recording using the LS name with the original).....

    So true. JC's version of Hurt killed NIN's one...
    And I to my motorcycle parked like the soul of the junkyard. Restored, a bicycle fleshed with power, and tore off. Up Highway 106 continually drunk on the wind in my mouth. Wringing the handlebar for speed, wild to be wreckage forever.
