Which Do You Prefer?
 

What is the best version of Forever Young? Basically, I mean, which one is the best?

I made a post on this the other day. . .just for your sake I'll do it again. It's Dylan's imo.

This forum has a search feature which actually works!
Anyway - this is offtpic here so Michel has to decide what to do with this.

Oh forgive me, If you wish to remove this you can R. I completely forgot about the Search.

There is also another topic about this, but the other topic is the difference between Dylan's and Meat version, and here you can talk also about other versions of this song. So I will lock the other topic, and you can discuss here which version you like the most.

I think Dylan is an excellent song writer but his vocals are a bit weak. I think Meat really does the song justice - especially in the soft parts although i think the chorus is a bit heavywhich ruins it for me a bit. But overall, meats is best version - if only Meat and Dylan would team up for an album - whoa!

Chrissie Hyndes [Pretenders] version is the best i have heared, fantastic vocals.

Meat's has a lot of power, and I love that guitar thing during the chorus. Makes me like it a lot more. I love guitar, and to put it in such a ballad, its really nice. Personally, I don't care for Dylan's version at all. He is a weak singer, but has great songwriting powerful. So that evens things out. Meat did a great cover. I also like Rod Stewart's. That was the first version I heard.

Meat's!!!!! Rod Stewart's is pretty good, but I am a die hard Meat fan, and that man really knew how to sing the song!! Bob Dylan...the man can write, but he has weak vocals. No wonder he didn't sell. I love the way he changes during the soft parts and then the guitar parts and then the chello/piano ending. Really good! :D
