It seems to generally be a yes. It seems to us though, that people just adore the originals so much that they don’t even listen to the cover\u00a0versions\u00a0and\u00a0arrogantly\u00a0burst out with a little\u00a0squeaky\u00a0“the originals better”, just in the same way that people fancy themselves more intellectual\u00a0because\u00a0they don’t watch films and start their self\u00a0righteous\u00a0rants with “the books better than the film”. That’s not always the case, Lord Of The Rings books are ace but, we don’t need to know every tiny\u00a0piece\u00a0of history about the castle in the distance that the fellowship don’t\u00a0actually\u00a0visit in the end ever. The movie came up with some super effects I never could have imagined reading the books as a kid. Everyone thinks it, but nobody admits it, like im sure if you listen carefully enough you can hear on the wind “Futurama is better than the Simpsons”. <\/em>The same is with songs, some covers are better\u00a0definitely\u00a0better than the originals. So with the Internet full of bloggers and music fans that all know<\/em> they’re right like we knew the world was<\/em> flat, were gonna throw out a\u00a0reasonable\u00a010 to start the debate. (Richard Cheese is in there for fun, an if you\u00a0haven’t\u00a0heard it already, then you should!)<\/p>\n
