That Them version is kick-ass though! Just not quite as good as The Elevators.

^ I was actually considering doing a new thread dedicated entirely to covers of "It's All Over Now, Baby Blue". So many great versions.
My pick is this one from Dion (yeah, I love Dion). Guitars are awesome, voice is beautiful:

I'm also particularly found of this version by the Druids of Stonehenge:

The other song I don't think I've ever heard a bad version of is "Morning Dew". That could have its own spinoff thread, too.
And just came across this cover of "Waterloo Sunset" by Ty Segall. Doesn't top the original but is plenty good anyway:

I think we're starting to repeat ourselves. :shrug:

So, anyway:

I may have posted this before, but frankly, I think I'm going to start posting it once per day.
