A voice from the past cried, "Give peace a chance"
He paid our price now he's free at last
And imagine, we called him a dreamer

The original is more laid back, which made sense.
But, MH put an edge on it I didn't know the song needed until I heard them do it.
I guess I like that they covered it, but didn't copy it.

Sail On, Sailor.

And although I wouldn't say they're better than the original, I'm very glad we have the Motorhead cover of Heroes and the Oasis cover of I Am The Walrus (though I wouldn't put that Beatles cover in the top 20 Oasis songs, as both Rolling Stone and NME did).

Oasis, live at Knebworth, August 11, 1996, joined by guitarist John Squire of the Stone Roses and Seahorses
