Alternative version CD swap

Sometimes, when an artist redoes a song, it's a wonderful interpretation of the original. Sometimes, it's just not. Did it make your heart hurt for Jessica Simpson to cover Berlin's "Take My Breath Away"? Do you much prefer the Black Crowe's version of "Hard to Handle" to Otis Redding's? Create a playlist of 12+ songs, either the original or the cover. Include a track list, and additionally, make a list of the "other" versions you don't like as much. Tribute albums like "Twisted Willie," "Encomium," and "For the Love of Harry" will probably offer you a lot of good ideas. Live versions by the original artist don't count, no matter what the new arrangement sounds like.
