Talking Heads made a good song better. Springsteen's I'm On Fire was better than the cover.

Gotta admit, I never knew "Take Me To The River" was a cover.

I got to know "Take me to the river" when I listened to The Commitments soundtrack a whole bunch in HS. And now thinking of that soundtrack, there's a whole bunch of covers I forgot about.

You should spend some time with Rev Al Green.

I, also, did not know the Talking Heads song was a cover.

Trounced!
