Not just on X Factor, but on Pop Idol, American Idol etc as well

I've got a few I can't think of atm but I thought of the idea from Laura's performance of Falling which I think was better than the original

Diana- With or Without You - I like U2.
And I prefered Bad Lashes's Wonderwall to Oasis', and I like Oasis. (Awaits abuse.)

David Cook's 'Billie Jean' was better than Chris Cornell's [whom I adore]

As for X-Factor;;
Maria Lawson's 'You're Beautiful'.
Same Difference's 'Tragedy'
Diana Vickers' 'With Or Without You'
&Alexandra Burke's 'I Wanna Dance With Somebody' [Preferred the arrangement].

:laugh2:seriously dude? i like their version too. but come'n. Oasis's version was awesome.

Blower's daughter-Diana Vickers
and I can't decide which version of 'carry you home' is better. Diana's or james blunt.
with or without you-Diana Vickers. I can listen to it more than the U2 version.

I likee Diana's version of With or Without You better than the original, and i have to agree with Markus about Leona's Somewhere Over the Rainbow, truly amazing, better than the original by miles, i also loved Maria Lawson's version of Piece of My Heart on the live shows, that was pure talent
