    Two of the best covers of all time, arguably better than the originals (which isnt often in music) imo are:



    and

    Elvis's version of Always On My Mind is a whole lot better than the Pet Shop Boys' karaoke version.

    It's the gayest bit of music trivia I've ever read.

    Nah the gayest bit of music trivia is Jagger and Bowie having Bum sex whilst making this video:



    Yes, they actually had a gay affair, "just to see what it was like" apparently......

    It really isn't.

    Not a big Elvis fan.
    Yes he did this and that, and helped rock music become popular, but I find listening to his music dull as ****.

    I'm not an Elvis fan but that track and Can't Help Falling in Love are two of his songs that I like. The UB40 version of the latter was ****e but then so was everything else they did.

    Can't argue with that, not a UB40 fan either.

    Wasn't all of UB40's songs covers? Or a vast majority of them?

    am pretty sure all the songs they are famous for are covers.

    Kingston Town was done in the 70's by some guy called Lord Creator
    Red Red wine was a neil diamond song from the 60's.
    Falling in love with you was Elvis, as we know.
    I Got you Babe was done by Sonny & Cher

    Both good choices. I like covers of Presley songs. FYC's cover of Suspicious Minds was also very good.

    Not a huge Presley fan but the two above and A Little Less Conversation & Burning Love are pretty good.
