Come Together

[Zeleii]

I am having an on going argument with a friend of mine, he insists that Michael Jacksons cover of Come Together is vastly superior to the Original version.

I keep trying to tell him why, The Beatles version is clearly better but he just rationalizes with "Michael Jackson is dead"


So I just come back with "John Lennon and George Harrison are dead, your point is moot"

So he just says "Michael Jackson was the king of pop so his version is better"

Opinions?

Both versions, could be better

Your friend gives really stupid reasons and Michael Jackson's version sucks compared to the Beatles'.

Your friend is a blithering idiot.

Well Come Together By the Beatles was pure genius and caused many orgasms while the Micheal Jackson scared many people and killed Come Together. The Beatles IS ROCK(Well in nowaday terms it is), MICHEAL JACKSON IS POP.

Soundgarden version is very Grunge-like
Marilyn Manson version is.....odd..

The Beatles they wrote it..

But it doesn't matter really

The Beatles. MJ died months ago, get over it people, and accept that there ARE better musicians.

[Evilbottom]

Aerosmith version lolno

[CommonCriminal]

Robin Williams version.

I kid. The Beatles.

Spiritualized's "Come Together" is better than every other song entitled "Come Together", however.

I am a HUGE Michael Jackson fan, but the Beatles all the way.

[LegendofRock3021]

The Beatles without a doubt.

[Lameboy19]

This is the only Beatles song I truly enjoy


and I LOVE every MJ song

my pick is for the Beatles

[LightningBolt]

I don't like the song in general. Love the Beatles, that song puts me to sleep, though.

Your friend has clearly left from the Port of Rationality and taken the "I love MJ because he's dead" boat.

The Beatles, good to know most people are voting for the right thing.

[Mega-Tallica]

Very, very rarely is a remake better than the original.

In fact, it's very rare to have a remake just as good as the original let alone better.

Where's my Soundgarden option?

Anyways, the Beatles version was vastly superior to MJ's.
