Even was a non-commercial radio DJ for about 25 years. I was surprised by the number of cover versions I have not heard in this mix - I just remember the originals or different covers.
Nicely done, though.

All along the Watchtower is the only one I prefer to the original. Saying that I do like Cash's version of Hurt.

Any cover of a Dylan song is better than the original.
Even Trent Reznor admits that Cash owns Hurt now.
???
Profit!

The covers were by talentless hacks (I'm looking at you Beyoncé), and most destroyed their original's unique qualities, and I respect the original artists even less for allowing the musical pollution. I used to love that Talk Talk song, until that diet punk, shit for brains skwarked all over it and it was played in EVERY, SINGLE, SHOP, and supermarket for three long years.

I either knew that they were covers and new the original/know of an original... or I didn't give a shit.

unless you were at the December 2005 bash, in which case your theory either holds water or it doesn't.

It was first released in 1993 by Danish signer Lis Sorensen as Brændt ("Burnt"), with lyrics translated by Elisabeth Gjerluff Nielsen.
For all you pub quiz aficionados.
Added:
Also, Nothing Compares 2 U was never released as a single by Prince/The Family, it was only an album track.
