Cover version of the week: "(I Can't Get No) Satisfaction" by Devo

This is my kind of cover. It builds on the Stones' original, but the sound is thoroughly Devo.



However, today my iPod served up this instead:



It's a Cat Power song with someone else's lyrics--nothing resembling the original. What's the point in covering the Stones without really covering them? It annoys me to no end.

Another Miki-approved version of "Satisfaction" comes from Otis Redding:



Again, it's recognizable but Otis puts his own stamp on it.
