How do you feel about cover songs as compared to the original?

Example: I prefer the Seether cover of Careless Whisper to George Michael's performance.

Once Nirvana covered a song, it's theirs.

I love cover songs.

Depends. Most times I don't hold them in as high of regard as the original, but some, well they are excellent.

I prefer Stevie Ray Vaughan's cover of Little Wing over the original played by Jimmy Hendrix.
