I don't think this is necessarily better than the original (it's hard to beat Neil Young) but k.d. lang's gorgeous take on "After the Gold Rush" is one of my favorite covers for sure:
And this one I do think is superior to the original. Tori does a beautiful job on "A Case of You." [Edited 9/3/09 6:13am] * * *

Timmy84 said: I love this version as well, Timmy. But, the following is another great version of this classic. People looked at Christina differently after this. I could not find the album version of this song, so this will have to do. Ironically, EVERY version that I have heard of this song, is better than Leon's version.

The same can be say about, "This Masquerade". His version, is terrible. George's and surprisingly, The Carpenters version is far superior to Leon's version.
