Worst. Pearl Jam. Song. Ever.
 
"The Fly"
The original version from the 50s was not bad, but it was not really all that great either.
The version from 1986 was a good movie. Perhas even very good.

Cake - I Will Survive
Ugly Kid Joe - Cats in the Cradle is borderline... I'd say it is equal to the original.

Die Die My Darling- Metallica equal to the misfits one
GNR- Live and Let Die

I like MXPX's "take on me" more then the original.

What about the Reel Big Fish version?


I thought the 1,000 Mona Lisa version was the original.....

Original was Alanis Morissette.

Aretha Franklin's version of "Respect" is better than the Otis Redding original (I believe even Otis thought so).

I don't think I've even heard Otis Redding's version.
