It’s a shame that you guys can’t hear my shower versions of all of these. They’re epic.
@@keeneem5194 how is that not a band gimmick already?
😂😂😂👍got a cd out?🤘
I have heard them, you just don't know it, Muahahahahahhahaha
NO VIDEOS PLEASE
@Curt Christensen look up leprous Restless. Got a moment in the video of a guy having a shower with a fish. Should be close enough
Hurt - Johnny Cash
The Man Who Sold the World - Nirvana
Sweet Dreams - Marilyn Manson
lol...I was 100% sure these 3 songs will be in this list...WTF Loudwire??
Nirvana's cover ain't even close to David Bowie's version
VB MUTT I prefer Eurythmics original Sweet Dreams
Apprentice of Satan that's just like your opinion
Operative word here in the title is BETTER. The only one of these three that is legit enough to be at least on par with the original is Johnny Cash's version of Hurt.
Also, I'm a bit about how Judas Priest's cover of Green Manalishi is on this list, yet their cover of Diamonds and Rust isn't.
Jimi Hendrix's cover of Watchtower was so good I didn't even know it was a cover until watching this video
Bob Dylan is a good songwriter but a lousy performer. That's why most of his songs covered by other artists are better than the original.
@@chris-su8ns 😭🔥🙈 that's fair
@@chris-su8ns ratm Maggie's farm is proof
The original Dazed and Confused sounds like it was way ahead of it time. Kudos
1967?
Yeah I was thinking that it sounds like a modern song in an old style
How so
Actually "Whiskey in the Jar" is a cover, of a cover, of a cover going back to 1870.
Yes. It's basically a folk song.
Dubliners version is best
@@fitzmcfitzy4340 yes you are correct.
@@fitzmcfitzy4340 Yeah man youre fuckin right
And the Thin Lizzy version is better than Metallica's.
Whiskey (NOT "Whisky") In The Jar is a traditional song from Ireland, so in a sense all versions of it are covers.
Older than all of Shitallicas fans combined
It is a traditional song. Phil Lynott & Lizzy didn't know the entire song. There's actually 7 verses in the song & Lizzy's is completely wrong. Metallica covered Lizzy's version & Lizzy's version is unique to them... Because it's completely wrong.
Not hating. I love Tin Lizzie, just Phil didn't actually know the lyrics as it was originally meant to be a filler B-side rather than their biggest hit!
No
Doubt
@@5p3ckyf0ur3y3d833k well, it was a b side cd for metallica
@@michaelcrowley9923 get fukt boomer
Clearly you're using the word "better" in a way I haven't previously encountered.
You were doing fine until you said the RHCP did it better than Stevie Wonder.
I can agree with basically all of them but that one. Stevies version is undoubtedly the best
RHCP's version is pretty great... But not better than Stevie Wonder.
That said... I'd bet the RHCP covered that song because Flea wanted to play the epic baseline... which he absolutely nails.
@@travcollier for me the bassline is why i prefer it
You are SO Right!
It is totally CRAP to say that the Red Hot Chilli Peppers version of " Higher Ground" is better than Stevie Wonders! Also, the Original "Summer Breeze" is better than the Type Negative remake!
Even Bob Dylan agrees Hendrix does "Watchtower" better than him.
Mike Mack I didn't even know it was a cover 😂😂
@@santiagoalonso7257 You do realize, though, that The Rolling Stones have never recorded a version of "Like a Rolling Stone" and GNR's cover of "Knocking on Heaven's Door" sucks, right? Other than that, you're entitled to your opinion, I guess.
@@mikemack9701 The Stones had a big hit with a cover of Like a Rolling Stone in the early 90s. (Unless you mean it wasn't really the Stones, like Mr Tambourine Man wasn't really the Byrds.)
It's *so much better* that Bob Dylan should have just given up playing it so as not to kill the crowd.....Imagine the place getting all hyped at the recognizable start of the song and then disappointed by Dylan's half spoken, bumbling meanderings into the lyrics lol
Poor guy.
Dylan never was much of a performer, he's a songwriter first and foremost
Jimi's Watchtower is the greatest cover in history.
Definitely! I still also like Bob Dylan's version
Respect by Aretha Franklin is up there.
@@orion5456 - Definitely
@@orion5456 Yes definitely!!!
Joe cocker With a little help ???
Metallica's "Whiskey In A Jar" is really a cover of a cover. It's actually a traditional Irish folk song that Thin Lizzy rearranged into a Rock song. And FYI, I actually think the Thin Lizzy version is the best version of the song.
Stevie Wonder's version of "Higher Ground" was definitely better!
100%
I agree to disagree
Absolutely. What I don't like about this video is that these are opinions presented as facts.
Also...
If you want to show The Clash performing I Fought The Law, you should have shown the performance from the 1980 film Rude Boy, not some terrible black and white homemade video.
Slap bass = better, eat shit loudwire
A thousand times
Y’all tripping on the Stevie Wonder one.
I was very surprised to know that Dazed and confused wasn’t an original song of Led Zeppelin !
To be fair, led zeppelin did not do a sufficient job of attributing credit. to the point that they were sued and updated their attribution
Google on it, a lot of Led Zeppelins songs are "inspired" by other songs. That was quite a shock to me, cause I am a big fan.
Some say led zeppelin is a thief but idc cuz led zeppelin better than original
Same here with Watchtower and Hendrix
Well which song they haven't covers, u know. Lol
Fact: Thin Lizzy's Whiskey in the Jar is also cover version.
Need to Disagree with higher ground , stevie is a legend, love RHCP but it sounds better with original soul funk
I like The Blind Boys of Alabama's version more
I don't even think Type O would dare say their version of Summer Breeze is "better" then Seals and Croft's.
The audio for type o negative they're using is for summer girl, not their cover of summer breeze. Both use the same tune, but the lyrics for summer girl aren't radio friendly. " can't wait to get inside of you" etc.
I'd never heard of the lot before I watched this video.
And will never hear of them again! What a shower of SHIT!
czcams.com/play/PL2WEZxALDm4XJwx5gvcPmC025lm6-gAX_.html
The version by the Isley Brothers is -- by far -- the best.
Type O Negative was great.... but yeah that audio quality was shit.
No one can do a Stevie Wonder's song better than Steve Wonder
Agreed. Some of these were a little ridiculous.
Both versions are great!
except for the chili peppers
Agreed
Red hot chilli peppers higher ground?
I remember hearing Sinead O’Connor’s cover of Princes “ Nothing compares 2 you” and was blown away !
Then Chris Cornell told Sinead , “ hold my beer “
and then Sinead told Chris, "hold my rope"
I've always preferred the lighter, upbeat version of "I fought the Law," something about it just works.
The original is leagues better than The clash's version.
I agree
I agree- it is a great version, and I like The Clash's version too. But I must say who ever wrote that Metallica does a better of Whiskey In The Jar than Thin Lizzy couldn't be more wrong.
I think the Dead Kennedys did it the best
The Bobby Fuller version is also a cover, big mistake.
The true original was done shortly after Buddy Holly's death by his band.
I'm not sure that you understand what "better" means...
All the originals are better just because they are, well, original. With one exception - Renegades Of Funk is pure trash so it doesn't matter.
I don't agree entirely.can you explain what you mean please?
Better is subjective. "More popular" might have been a better descriptor.
Cliché
Agreed.
Jimi's version of All Along the Watchtower is absolutely better
I got goosebumps just by knowing it would be played next, so definitely, YEAH!
Even Dylan said the first time he heard it. Jimi owned the song...
Jimi was a big Bob Dylan fan.
Archol 1 million f*ckin percent.
It's a pretty crappy live version of Dylan's version, vs. the studio version of Hendrix'. Dylan's studio version is awesome.

David bowie's "The Man Who Sold The World" cover by Nirvana in MTV Unplugged is the best too.
I love the chili peppers....
But better than Stevie? You’re out of your damm mind...
dude no one can 1up stevie boy
i read this as StevieT for some reason i don't even watch him xD
And Metallica better than Thin Lizzy?! Sorry, ummm....no.
Thanks. Steve's keyboards make this song. The cp cover is ok. Not better.
Exactly
I'm a fan of rhcp, but their cover was not better than Stevie Wonder's
Shawn Salim Smithy yes, it was.
It might not be, but I think that their cover of Teenager in Love was way better than Dion and the Belmont's version.
Shawn Salim Smithy I think it is personally and this is coming from both a RHCP fan and Wonder fan
I'd agree
Not even close!
“10 Covers of Songs” There, I fixed the title for you!!!
I LOVE Priest! That being said, Anyone that doesn't understand Peter's Green Manalishi is THE ALL TIME DO NOT understand where the song came from and why Priest covered it in the first place.
I love both original and Priest version. They don't interfere with each other at all, both are amazing in their own right, and I like how Priest made the song their own by changing it a lot while not ruining it either. And Peter Green was the real Fleetwood Mac, even if later era is good pop rock, but completely different band.
RHCP better than Stevie Wonder? C'mon man.
Also, Summer Breeze was the first song I heard by Type O 20+ years ago. I instantly became a fan, and it gave me an appreciation for the original.
NamelessHere Forevermore I wish they had a better clip for ToN.
I hear ya, but I think they use live clips because otherwise they wouldn't be able to monetize them.
Yup..that was ridiculous
Chili's rocked that song, but you can't top a Stevie Wonder original.
Nothing beats Thin lizzy's Whiskey in the jar
Yeah as much as I love Metallica I don't think the cover is better. I would've gone with the Am I Evil cover which is better than the original imo
Same with me
thin lizzy's whiskey in the jar is a cover too
False, the Dubliners kicks the shit outta every version
Whiskey in the jar is not even a Thin Lizzy song, is a traditional Irish folk song that has been covered by many artist
Two of classic rock's songs remain and will remain all-time classics in their own right, but what Metallica did with Turn The Page and Disturbed did with Sound Of Silence are on the same level with the original versions by Bob Seger and Simon & Garfunkel respectively. Both versions of each song are true masterpieces and will be for several decades to come.
nothing and no one will ever be on the same level as simon and garfunkel
Disturbed Sound of Silence is much better than the original…even Paul Simon said the song now belongs to them
@@tortienana4701 see thats the good thing about music. it is totally subjective. your opinion is that it is better, mine is that it will never be on the same level, despite being a solid cover.
iirc, paul simon said that it was a powerful, wonderful rendition, which is true.
have a good day
Whiskey in the Jar is an Irish folk song. Before Thin Lizzy, it was performed by The Dubliners, founded in 1962.
Diamonds And Rust by JUDAS fucking PRIEST!
Faust Da Vinci yesss
Yup yup yup yup yup
indeed was waiting for that one
Even Joan Baez said that was her favorite cover version of it.
I really like the cover by Blackmore's Night. Candace Night has a beautiful voice.
Most of this is highly debatable.
Nah, don't be polite. It's a shit list.
Smoking in the boys room by Mötley Crüe
Hence the comment section. Every comment here is an opinion even when declared as fact.
electricwizard3000 All Along the Watchtower is probably the only one I'd agree with.
MASS debatable?
Along the watch the tower is a cover, I’m today years old when I found that out
Honorable mentions:
You really got me, Oh Pretty Woman, and Ice cream man - Van Halen
Man who sold the world and Love buzz - Nirvana
Knocking on Heavens door - Guns N’ Roses
Last kiss - Pear jam
Surfing Bird - Ramones
Where did you sleep last night - Nirvana
HaliniSnow great song but not better than the original
HaliniSnow I agree 100%, leadbelly wrote the song when you pretty much only used major chords and that sound doesn't fit with the song at all, nirvana played it the way it always should have been.
Shit, that's really good, but better? I'm not saying it's not, but I'm still debating with myself.
Stevie and Phillip Lynnot still do it best in my book
Yeah, no way is the Metallica version even near it
Interestingly, those are the very twin I mentioned.
"diamonds and rust "was covered by both Judas Priest and Blackmores Night ,matter of taste but both a different spin on the original version
I guess that lists like these should be called "xx songs played in a genre I prefer more"
Johnny Cash's cover of Nine Inch Nails' "Hurt" was great...
I believe Reznor agrees. I know i do.
Was great. Not better
J Lyvren not better though
@@parabuus my friend he did not agree he said it was like getting your girlfriend taken away from you
How about Callmekevin's cover of ring of fire ?
More like Bore Ragnarok
Just because a song gets "rock-ized" or "metaL-ized" doesn't make it better, just different.
Butt Better
That's true. But metal heads always believe a redone "metalized" track is better than the original...
AAAAAAAAAND thats where you‘re wrong kid
Agree
Hahaha seriously? You just didn’t say that.
Stevie "is a" Wonder RHCP needs to wait downstairs
The Jimmy Hendrix and Led Zeppelin were my favourite from this list.
I'd say "um, I'm gonna have to go ahead and disagree with you on that one" for Stevie Wonder and Seals & Crofts. Lol
Those were the two that I also disagreed with.
Exactly the same for me as well.
Brent Woolard everything Metallica covered was better than the original
@@funnyfarmband4410 no. Especially Queen's Stone Cold Crazy, the original was better. But that's my opinion I guess.
did you take my stapler?
Hendrix flat out stole watchtower and made it his.
*insert the 'hes black' joke*
yet Bob Dylan adapted Jimis way of playing it
Supposedly, Bob Dylan approached Jimi after seeing him play it live and told him the song is now his.
antimax DOESNT surprise me. His interpretation does the song true justice. Dylan is a phenomenal songwriter but he’s limited as a singer and instrumentalist. Hendrix is the greatest rock guitarist ever and he took that song to a higher plane.
I thought he wrote it honestly
Having two half naked ladies dancing on stage is the coolest thing I have ever watched! Should be done more often!
You forgot Johnny Cash's version of "Hurt". In my opinion one of the best covers of all times.
...and the video...
The NIN version of hurt is such a nail in a chalkboard
Johnny cash version is such a beauty
@@christian9146 I heard NIN gave the rights to this song to Johnny, because they were so amazed by his version. "This is no longer our song". I don't know if it's true
I was going to comment on how lame this click bait was, but looks like everyone has it covered.
sorry but Obi-WAn Kenobi is still the best when it's about higher ground
HAHAHAHA Good one bro
may the whiskey be with you
sethsalahadin that is probably the worse line in a movie ever, but that's a great reference
Ha! I get it
Stevie's original "Higher Ground" IMO hits harder than RHCP's version.
you missed Johnny Cash's cover of hurt and White Lion's cover of radar love
No no no, Golden Earring's version of Radar Love remains superior
Can't beat Seals and Croft, theirs is the best version.
Add Peter Griffin's version of Shipoopi
And iraq lobster
And Bird is the Word
some of my fav good cover:
Sails of Charon - Testament
War Pigs - Faith No More
Hair of the Dog - GNR
The Man Who Sold the World - Nirvana
Space Oddity - Saigon Kick
Turn the Page - Metallica
Thanks, didn't know Testament covered Sails of Charon. Not bad at all :-)
Shitallica disgraced Bob Segar
The man who sold the world. Yesssss
Bob Dylan changed the way he sang All Along the Watchtower after hearing Jimi Hendrix sing his song.
I only agree wi the Led Zep & Hendrix covs.
Covs and wi, huh? You omitted two whole letters from each word; what did you do with ALL the time you saved by spelling like a third grader, clown?
@@alcalu Your mom
@@alcalu yes because every word mustn't be misspelled and lingo is a byproduct of the laziness of this generation.
I agree.
Does it count as a cover version if you don’t credit the original and pretend it’s your own?
Love the RHCP version but Stevie Wonder Higher Ground is definitely better.
i disagree
Stevie Wonder is talent But is Fake
Agreed, but flea has better bass
I like covers like those that don't just blindly duplicate the original, but also don't ruin it either and keeps the core essence there, where you can listen to both versions and enjoy them almost as separate good songs. Tbf, title of this video should probably have been "List of good covers" but that doesn't generate views.
Where's Blinded By The Light by Manfred Mann and Knocking On Heaven's Door by Guns N Roses?
Cold day in hell when Manfred Man's retched version is ever considered better than Bruce's, get serious.................
@@cosmickid1794 thank fuck, someone commented that this man was out of pocket
The greatest cover of all-time , Grand Funk, " Inside looking out " . Live in 69 on PBS.
Every time someone says that the Disturbed cover of Sounds of Silence was better than the original Simon and Garfunkel version I cringe with all sincerity.
Industrial Savior I cringe when someone says guns and roses version of knocking on heaven's door is better than the original.
nickolas wishon Oh God no.
ikr
Industrial Savior fuck disturbed
I actually like the song. It's not as good as the original but it's nothing to hate on.
I also didn't know Land of Confusion was originally a Genesis song (as they're a little before my time). But I still think it's a great song.
Led Zep’s Dazed was definitely THE BEST!
@Vincent Mileto They might have the same title but they are different songs ,the lyrics are different.
CresswellTim the tunes are the same. The Yardbirds version had different lyrics to Zep.
Especially the Live Version on The Song Remains the Same. Watching Page shred that violin bow was incredible.
I fought the Law: Bobby Fuller > The Clash
Summer Breeze - Seals & Crofts > Type O Negative
The Bobby Fuller version is also a cover, big mistake.
The true original was done shortly after Buddy Holly's death by his band.
At a party I overheard a conversation about this topic. Someone said that "Last caress" by Metallica was better than the original. I laughed hard and left the room.
I just am digging into Metallica's music, so I don't know about that one yet. But I'll be prepared :D
Metallica´s music is sure alright, but they are nowhere near the Misfits.
Anything Metallica covered in their prime was better than the original
@@georgelanders4271 lol
The one i personally don't agree with is Summer Breeze since I love the nice slow tone of Seals and Crofts version
Were the hell is "If you Have Ghosts?
EDsavant ding ding ding! Found the comment I was looking for so I wouldn't have to comment this myself.
Ghosts cover is good, but the two songs are so vastly different in every way that its pretty hard to compare. I still like Roky Eriksons version the most. Legendary.
Branch Brothers definitely true that they are hard to compare.
EDsavant. Don't give me that shit,nothing and I mean nothing will ever beat Roky Erickson's original version.
Or Bible.
Thank you for including Type O!
No one is better than Seals and Crofts. Hard to imagine anyone can cover their music. The harmonies would be too difficult to recreate.
That last one is a fail. What the hell did they do to "Summer Breeze"?!
I thought they would show Phil Collins version. But Loudwire has a Type'O fan boy doing these videos.
original is way better
Hi really big Type-O fan here. They picked the absolute worst video of their cover... BUUUUT.. Isley Brothers was the best version. ToN made a really awesome cover which stands up against the original, but its not quite as good. RIP Peter.
Fucking butchered it. And any group that could sound that horrible doesn't deserve to be playing music. Or , I should say attempting to play music, in this case.
The Isley Brothers cover of Summer Breeze is much better than this!
I like the Clash's, but something about the original "I Fought the Law" just hits it.
Thin Lizzy also had the better "Whiskey in a Jar."
Meme Iselfaneye Totally agree!! The Clash are great but Bobby Fuller Four totally nail it ... Even Jello agrees, the DK version is just a platform for their outrage about Dan White getting away with murder
The original I Fought the Law is actually by The Crickets.
DK version of I fought the law beats all the others in my opinion
Phoenix Roberts I was thinking the same thing
White Lions version of Golden Earrings “Radar Love” tends to go under the radar (pun intended). It’s a phenomenal cover imo
No, the original remains superior :D
I would agree just because Vito tore it up, just a supremely sick guitar player in a shitty band.
@@WonHakWoon I'll agree Golden Earrings version is better.
Land of Confusion by Disturbed,Careless Whisper by Seether,No Quarter by Tool,Planet Caravan by Pantera,Team by Local H,She Bop by Gwar
Painkiller by Brides of Lucifer 🤘👌
Thank you Bob Dylan for writing 'Watchtower", thank you Jimi for making it exceptional!
Higher Ground by Stevie Wonder is a lot better than Chili Peppers.
have to agree sorry rhcp
I think Anthony has said as much, himself. Testament to how cool the guy is.
It had to be Flea's bass
Honestly there both pretty damn good.
I like Red Hot Chili Peppers version more, but Stevie wrote a damn good song!
5:44 Type O Negative could not afford a smoke machine so their roadies were instructed to smoke cigarettes on stage.. lolz
I'm not sure about the chilli Peper's version, but the rest are definitely greater than the originals.
The only thing better about RHCP's Higher Ground was the bass.
Yes it's a cover , just not metal
I always say some covers stand out
Stevie Wonder is fake
@@roberts.5136
Punk Rules And Pop Music is fake Stevie Wonder not blind
You can't beat Stevie. Ya just can't. And fuck the guy saying stevie is fake.
holy shit i didnt even know all along the watchtower was a cover by jimi hendrix
Dude
Dylan actually said, after he heard Hendrix's version that he wished he would have just written it for Hendrix.
TheMrNoname bruh
That's because Jimi fucking OWNED that song.
compared to mumbling Dylan's version this one punches in the face like a wake up call ;)
What about Panteras cover of Cat Scratch Fever??
Blinded by the Light is the textbook example of a cover being better than the original. The cover by Manfred Mann's Earth Band is exponentially better than Springsteen's original.
Don’t forget Hurt by Johnny Cash, is a cover of Hurt by Nine Inch Nails
NIN's version was better. R. I. P. Johnny❤️
At least they were smart enough to know Johnny Cashs Rusty Cage was better than Soundgardens, but I do like them both, but Johnnys more.
It stopped being a cover when trent said its no longer his song Johnny did it better.
TRUE
Sad Kermit is still the best version
Along with "Hurt", one of the best ever is UB40's cover of Neil Diamond's "Red Red Wine".
The Johnny cash cover of Hurt was good. I didn't know Neil Diamond wrote Red Red Wine though.
I thought that UB40 turning Diamond's song into reggae was innovative. Then I discovered that turning other songs into reggae was their whole schtick. Devoid of an original thought.
Ray Charles - Yesterday
@@trishave5639 Are I am the only one that prefer NIN:s version of Hurt??
@@YesMan-uy4cj I prefer NIN's version to Johnny Cash but as a country cover it was pretty damn good and I detest country music.
I wish i knew what the dazed and confused live footage was from. I cant find it.....someone give me name of the show?? Lol
‘Whiskey In The Jar’ is actually a very old Celtic song that was the Irish drinking anthem and The Dubliners covered it first, the Thin Lizzy did a cover of it, then Metallica did a cover of it, so basically Metallica did a cover of a cover
Of a cover of a cover.
What About...
The Kinks - You Really Got me
Van Halen - You Really Got me
STFU pendejo
Rodrigo I think original is better
Kinks is better but Van Halen did good though
@@hunteradams3818
Ghost sucks
Not metal, but Earth, Wind and Fire's cover of The Beatles' "Got to Get You Into My Life" is amazing.
Carly Booth joe cockers version of a little help from my friends is better than the Beatles version.
@@Bigchet1223 yes it is, Joe cocker done it better, but the beatles is amarzing too
That’s such a good version!
@@Bigchet1223 I'll agree. Cocker's version of She Came in through the Bathroom Window gives the Beatles a run for their money as well my
I have found that whichever version I hear first is the one I like best.
Great list but what about Black Crowes Hard to Handle?
I think they meant to title this "Louder Covers of Other Songs". That's the only thing that makes any sense.
Judas Priest - Diamonds & Rust
The Dead Kennedys cover of I Fought The Law is awesome as well. My personal favourite.
Fully agree to Fleetwood Mac and Priest. Green Manalishi from the Unleashed... album is unbeatable. But absolutely no to Slade and Quiet Riot. And the best cover of I put a spell on you definitely is by CCR
Some of these "originals" were actually covers themselves.
Yup.
Whiskey in the Jar - Traditional Folk Song
California Sun - Joe Jones
I Fought the Law - The Crickets
And the Green Manalishi was by a different incarnation of Fleetwood Mac with different people in the band
Sorry, Thin Lizzy’s version of Whiskey in a Jar I the standard the others should aspire to be!
paguy1 I know that’s a traditional song in Ireland
Metallica is the most overrated band of all time. Any decent cover band could top Metallica’s version of this song if they put in just a little effort.
Non Irish versions of Whiskey in the Jar are just bad karaoke
They got this one wrong!
Amen!!
you know what i enjoyed most about this video.. no fucking voice over explaining the differences. let the music do the talking. Thank you for this.
One I forgot was Seether’s cover of Careless Whisper. Shaun Morgan using guitar to replace the saxophone makes it a better version.
7/10. Thin Lizzy, Stevie Wonder and Slade are by far the better versions.
Agreed. Prefer original
Way better.
Agreed
correct
Also Seals and Crofts "Summer Breeze" beats the cover version.
Joan Baez "diamonds and rust" is okay... BUT HAVE YOU HEARD THE JUDAS PRIEST VERSION?
Agreed the Priest version kicks was
How about the SOD version??
@@thesmogmankills1 Hell Yes
Can't believe Disturbed version of "Sound of Silence" is not on this list.
At least they mentioned that ’Higher Ground’ is originally by Stevie Wonder because no one seems to acknowledge that or even know that
