Time for me to make another of these threads, I think :P . And this time, the song in question is Running Up That Hill - which you've probably been hearing a lot recently :lol: .

The original was, of course, released by Kate Bush in 1985. This version has surged in popularity in the past couple of months, since it played a prominent role in the latest series of Stranger Things (even if you haven't watched the show, you're probably aware of this!):



However, there was also a cover version, released by Placebo in 2003:



So, which was your favourite? And, do you have any others that you'd like to recommend?

That "cover" is horrible. More like an atrocity imo lol The original sounds so much better.

Not a fan of the song, but clearly, I step aside for the queen from Within Temptation. (2003)

Yeah, I think that's a better cover than the Placebo one (which is a bit too slow and boring IMO).

I still prefer the original over this one - but, had I known about it when I started the thread, I would probably have included it as my second option :) !
