With an honourable mention for the live version of The Sound of Silence when Draiman duets with Myles Kennedy

I’ve always loved the Disturbed version but that one takes it to a whole new level - Myles Kennedy is an incredible singer (that live version is also on Spotify)https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H3By4DZyTNM&li...
Torch Song by Todd Rundgren is up there for me: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iJqDA7MZ_zU
The pills won't help you now, The Chemical Brothers with the beautiful voice of Tim Smith ex of Midlake.
My funeral song.

Needs to be heard start to finish as there are some wonderful uplifting crescendo moments.

Hurt - Johnny Cash
Coincidentally my son was playing this on his guitar about half an hour ago. I am not sure it's beautiful, but haunting arguably. The video makes it more so.Louis Balfour said:
I could run with "different". I like the NIN version but it is more...gritty for want of a better description. Apparently they cleaned up the lyrics for JC, who I think did the song proud and the video was quite moving.
undoubtedly a great version that could have turned out terrible.. i suppose it's a matter of timing.. when nine inch nails first appeared at the back end of the 80s with pretty hate machine i was hooked...a few years later when the downward spiral appeared trent reznor was etched into my soul.. i was so used to hearing hurt done his way anything else was never going to live up to it ..tuscaneer said:

The quiet version on Further Down The Spiral tops them all for me.
can't argue with that mate... the sparseness of "something i can never have" makes it my favourite NIN track although i must admit as a body of work "the fragile" is my favourite album.".la mer" and "the great below" are just stunning pieces of musicWindyCommon said:

I get where you're coming from with that, but she's hauntingly beautiful and his vocal range is twice as good as hers.Is it better than the original?
It is undoubtedly beautiful, but lacks the drama of the original.
