Sorry if this should be in wibbles, but "let's listen to" threads go here, so I figured this would.

Personally I like the one by Ugly Kid Joe. It's the only song ever where I like some version better than the original. The original was by Harry Chapin, however, and is also great. I will post youtube links to all the versions that I know of.

They are in order of best to worst in my opinion. If you only listen to 1 LISTEN TO THE TOP ONE it's amazingly well done.

hhmm. For some reason those links aren't loading right in my firefox (My P.C. has been acting weird today) But I know the song and if I am not mistaken Johnny Cash did it on one of his later albums. In my opinion his was the best because he was Johnny Cash and did everything wonderfully. Second would be Gun's and Roses, for what are probably novelty reasons seeing as I don't ever listen to them. Third would be Ugly Kid Joe, again because they rock and most things they do are o.k.

Johnny cash's version is like 4th on my list.

I didn't know guns n roses did this song lol. The would have to be my favorite though. Just because I love guns n roses.

You forgot to post the spoofs though.

Wich ever one would have kickass bass and heavy metal if any of them do.

I can honestly say that I don't like this song... Not even the Guns N' Roses version and I love Guns N' Roses!!

...You know the more I think about it the more I doubt if they ever did do one. For some reason when I made that post I was sure, but then today at work I was thinking, and Im not anymore...Ill google!

Did you listen to my link? I posted a spoof.

Its called the cats in the kettle.

Johnny Cash is win .I viewed all of em and i still like Johnny Cash's the best. I
love his voice. So i have to go w/ the man in black.

Closest is ugly kid joe.


And Slith how can you not like this song?? Do you not get what it's about/how deep it goes, or what? I just listened to it for like the hundredth time and it still brings tears to my eyes.

Deady they did do one if you check all my links its 3rd from the top.

EDIT: OMG I just realized thats actually the ugly kid joe version... (the vids a fake)
