FT: Cover songs

Let's be real for a second, there are a countless number of cover songs out there. The most noticeable, and relevant, for this thread is songs covered by other famous artists, and not the average youtuber releasing their version of a song. 
In some cases we might not even be aware that the song we are enjoying is a cover song, it's almost unthinkable. 

Here are two very famous examples of successful and famous covers of songs: 

Johnny Cash - Hurt (Original by Nine Inch Nails) 


Soft Cell - Tainted Love (Original by Gloria Jones) 



A few questions: 
Did you know that these songs were covers? 
What is your favourite cover song? 
Which is the cover song you have disliked the most? 
What do you think about cover songs? 
Do you think that cover versions are in general better than the original, or not?

For me, honestly, I do prefer the A1 cover of the A-ha song although I am aware that it is quite controversial. I guess I just generally prefer boybands over .. whatever I would describe A-ha as lmao: 



And of course, iconic music video.. it has aged so incredibly poor it's hilarious.

This one is maybe more.. recognizable, I guess. I feel like The National at least have some hold. I like both the cover and original of this one tho.

What is your favourite cover song?  The only one I can think of currently, or sweater weather by james harris instead of the neighbourhood
Which is the cover song you have disliked the most? All the ones that r trash recorded in my spotify reccomended
What do you think about cover songs?  They are ok as long as they are not trashly made and/or copied totally
Do you think that cover versions are in general better than the original, or not? Sometimes, probably depends which one I hear first lol

Yes
I don't have one, I'm more impressed by samples 
Sitting On The Dock Of The Bay- Michael Bolton
Come correct or don't bother at all
It depends, there are some artists where one should have real vocal skills when attempting to cover the song
