She's great.Taylor Swift is a guilty pleasure of mine, even if my mates don't agree.

Very big on Bad Blood, both versions have their unique parts which I like. I Knew You Were Trouble and 22 are absolute bangers, too. Less a fan of her latest stuff, but Fearless, Red and Bad Blood I can listen to from front to back no issues.

Have you heard Ryan Adams' cover of her 1989 album? Some very good takes on her tracks on there. His version of Style is kickass.
Not that big on I Knew You Were Trouble. 22 is great, her latest album is very good. Reputation not so big on.
State of Grace, Red, Welcome To New York probably my three favourites. Love Style too. Really like Fifteen and Hey Stephen too.
All Too Well is probably her best song.

I haven't heard the cover but I'll chuck it on at some point this weekend.

He covered the whole album and released it, listen to the whole thing (admittedly I don't like all of it, but there are quite a few covers from that album that I dig)

That’s a fair assessment. These days a lot of pop has the skrillex-esque beats behind it so can’t see it transferring over in my opinion. I could see their experimental stuff being successful in the more underground circles.
Of course but again it’s a hypothetical.
About to say Ryan Adams cover album is great. Shame he’s been thrown in with the #metoo movement (not condoning his actions).

He's written some great tracks.
He was meant to be releasing a new album, hope it's still happening.

I was wrong earlier when talking about my favourite cover of all time
It is without a doubt this. This song would also be in my top 10 favourite songs of all time, hands down.
My old mate Bruce might have wrote it, and while I don't mind his version, this is infinitely better. I could listen to this on repeat for hours. The arrangement is a million times better.

Yeah that one is a cracker Cruyff but I am going to approach this question from being familiar with the original tune first, so for me that rules out easy options like All along the watchtower and I fought the Law.
I’m struggling to think of a good example though - I’ll post when one comes to mind!

Another good contender would have been Without You by Harry Nilsson but I was not familiar with the original by Badfinger when I first heard it. Conversely Mariah Carey’s version is an abomination. A cover song that I actually can’t stand that a lot of people really like is Mad World by Gary Jules. The original version is much better.

Jeff Buckleys hallelujah is a great cover.

Big fan of this actually:
But it's bias because they're local.
Also Art vs Science's Enter Sandman cover is good, especially live:

I finally thought of one. When I heard this for the first time I finally realised perfection can be improved on

Yeah it got postponed after someone accused him of sexual harassment and his ex wife Mandy Moore and Phoebe Bridgers, who he helped start, also accused him of it.

Ooooh.
That's not even the best cover of that song for mine.
John Cale's will always top it for me (not to say JB's is bad by any stretch)
When he gets to that final verse, man, you can feel his heart break.

Love that the drums are turned right up.

What a blast from the past on so many levels.
1. The Smiths
2. Charmed
3. T.A.T.U and those film clips

Favourite cover would be this one. Came out when I was in year 8 (I think) and still listening to the original. Then this came out and I was hooked straight away. Plus, two FIFA favourites (The Kooks and Kids) combining was a match made in heaven for 14 year old me.
