A new series I am doing after the incredibly unpopular Tri-Top series seems to take a break. The concept is easy, we compare two songs against each other, and you tell me and the world... of WrestleZone, which song you prefer, the original, or a famous cover. We will start with a classic first performed in 1973.
Bob Marley's I Shot The Sheriff.

Eric Clapton's Cover

Myself, as one massive Eric Clapton fan, I choose the cover version. I am a Marley fan, but I did not start listening to him until middle school. By the time that happened, I had been listening to Eric's battle with authority for around 10 years. So for me, this is one occurrence where the cover goes over the original by leaps and bounds.
