Hendrix gets us off with a bang with his cover of All Along the Watchtowers crushing Dylan's original with the original just avoiding a whitewash, 25-1.

Rules:
• 24 hours
• No alts
• Etc., etc., you're on board 8, you know how all this stuff works by now.
• I obviously can't guarantee you listen to both versions, but if you say or imply you didn't or vote based on some other reasoning other than which version you prefer your vote won't count.

Feel free to nominate any songs you want compared. If you are going to nominate, include the original artist and the cover version you want compared. I'm going to run songs in an order that I feel like, but I will use your nominations.

Original - Nine Inch Nails:

Cash.

Even Trent Reznor said, "When Johnny Cash covers your song, it's no longer your song. It's a Johnny Cash song that you retroactively covered."

The original resonates with me in a big way. The moody teenager in me can cry if that song plays in the right context. But I'll tear up every time I hear Cash's version. The songs have two entirely different meanings in its forms, though. that's the big thing, and one that the original artist himself agrees with.

Going with Cash
