I absolutely love hearing a new version of a great song - as long as the new artist makes it their own. Sometimes an artist will even do a completely new version of their own popular song. Peter Gabriel and Sting both did that in concert. Colin Hay did some of that when he remade Men at Work songs too. Many years ago I remember using Sheryl Crow’s version of Behind Blue Eyes to test speakers.

I LOVE when artists cover songs. I could go on and on about my favorite covers. I could list too many here to be readable or reasonable.

Instead I'll limit myself, and will just say that the vocal renderings of these two songs by these two early 90s vocalists are very powerful. Cornell's -- particularly in light of his untimely passing -- is nearly enough to move me to tears. Vedder's adds an edge of anger and conviction to the song that the original arguably lacked.
 

Chris Cornell - Nothing Compares 2 U (by Prince)
Eddie Vedder - Masters of War (by Bob Dylan)

 

Check 'em out on Spotify or Youtube or something. Powerful stuff.
