Everyone knows the cover version, but who recorded it first? Which version is better?

There’s an entire generation that loves the Guns & Roses version of this song. One of many things they’re profoundly wrong about.

There are classic books/series that hinge on torture and rape. I’m out immediately. It isn’t edgy, it’s lazy and disturbed.

Absolutely one of my favorite Deep Purple tracks. I always knew it was a cover, but never listened to the original until today!

No, but we did see one go after a backpack on the woman about 10 feet from us. We learned our lesson about monkeys during our first visit to Vietnam.

#Spain #travellovers update:
Took a 3-day side trip to the Costa del Sol to briefly visit Nerja, Malaga, Mirabella, and Gibraltar.
Made the decision to drive into the last one and got hopelessly lost and toured some interesting side streets and alleys!

Hard to believe the innocent little Cowsills siblings made this song a radio hit. I grew up on the Original Cast Recording.

I love The Boss, but I first fell in love with this song from the Rage Against the Machine cover. Since come to appreciate both.

It’s the old farts like me who should probably read more contemporary titles instead of rereading Dune or Foundation!
