The 10 Greatest Cover Songs (Part 4)

continued from last post


7) I Remember You- U2


A Ramones song in tribute to Joey Ramone. Sometimes you don't know how beautiful a song is until U2 slow it down and sing it for you.






8) No Woman No Cry- The Fugees


"I remember when we used to rock in a project yard in Jersey,
And little Georgie would make the firelight,
As stolen cars passed through the night"

Bob Marley's live version is one of the greatest records ever made, and Wyclef, Pras and Lauren Hill's version is the best rap cover that's ever been done. Wyclef has a great voice, he should sing more; but only good songs like this one.
