My favourite is Alison Moyet's cover version of Ketty Lesters..love letters

[Sweetpea]

Light my Fire by Jose Feliciano is IMO better than the Doors version. Hubby does not agree, but hey ho!

And last week i heard 2 young men (DONT KNOW WHO THEY WERE) singing THE FIRST TIME EVER I SAW YOUR FACE,,,Roberta Flacks origonal ......it was a very very good version....

Ok, another: Byrds 'Mr Tamborine Man' was much better than Bob Dylans version, IMO.

Were they young (30's) blond and rather attractive. If so, it was Journey South.
