    The more years pass the harder it will be for musicians to come up with something new that hasn't been there yet.
    And some just love a particular song and want to do their own interpretation/performance on it.
    Are there any songs you know that have been re-interpreted? Please post and either let us know which version you like better or leave it open for everyone to figure for themselves :)

    I know a few originals vs remakes as well..

    Culture Beat "Mr Vain" from 1993 vs Culture Beat "Mr Vain Recall" from 2003

    I like Let Me Ride better, because Dre samples my favorite section of the original song.

    I like the Treacheorus Three's version a little better than Taana's original version.

    There's hella other songs that sample Heartbeat, but I'll be damned if I post up all them videos. These are just my favorite songs that use Heartbeat.

    I like Battlecat's version the best. Beat goes TOO hard. The original is the shit though, too. And Garcia Vegas is a Bay Area anthem to many.

    But Cat comes out on top for this one.

    I heard this recently and liked it. Definitley remade by a band in a different genre.
