Who Did It Better? Conversation about Musical REMAKES!

[ToraGirl 5,498]

So on the way home, I hear "Live and Let Die"...by GUNS AND ROSES.  Almost wrecked in surprise, but I was captivated.  Seriously, I am a huge WINGS fan, and "Sir" Paul McCartney, decades my senior, is my original "man-crush."  In search of other things to talk about, I thought...new thread!  So, if you adore music of all generations, weigh your input on the two versions and then add some of your own!

I hoped you would!  We both can't put the melodies down...here's another...but I gotta go Talking Heads this time.

A-ha remade their Take on Me and it’s my favorite ever. 

As for the GnR remake of Live and Let die... I didn’t know it was a remake until about 4 years ago. 😂

Speaking of 80's....this one was brought to my mind by my then-teens...who of course thought Gwen did the original.  I'm sticking with Talk Talk.

Which one, this time?  Equal for me...both have their merits.
