Fun fact! The Beatle’s cover of Twist and Shout was recorded in exactly on take because John *ammihilated* his throat and vocal cords on the first take:
Also it was one of their favorite songs to play back when they were a club band, iirc
Nirvana’s The Man Who Sold the World is just fucking haunting and beats out the original for me.
The Beatle’s cover of Twist and Shout and Tiny Tim’s cover of Girl are also just absolutely a-tier.
The Indigo Girls version of Romeo and Juliet is also a perfect pairing with the Dire Straits original
