OFF TOPIC

Of course the thread title is a take off from a Dan Fogelberg album,"Twin Sons of Different Mothers".
Take a song you love and post at least two versions of it.
I'll start with Elvis(Costello,of course) doing one of my all time favorite songs.
Then after Elvis,is the writer of the song, Nick Lowe. Enjoy.

  Well, of course I have to get really obscure with this stuff.
  
  Here's, IMO, a great remake of this classic Beatles tune and then of course
  the original version done by the Beatles.
  
  The remake is by a group called Trash.
  
  The Song, off of Abbey Road, "Golden Slumbers/Carry That Weight"

All great songs!
Steven,never heard of Trash but that sounded pretty good.
KJ, I also love the album version.Of course that song sounds great in almost every form I have heard so far.
Ken, I think that was the first time I ever heard anyone call Blue Cheer mellow!
Vicone, at first I thought ya broke the thread, but on second look I see you were right in line.

Now, I have to do another Costello song ,this time done by Dave Edmonds and Linda Ronstadt.

Two versions of "Diamonds And Rust".

The first is by Joan Baez, and the next is by Judas Priest.

Oh yeah, one of these is mellow, and the other isn't. See if you guess which is which .
