The Great Smiths Covers Competition

Track 5 - There Is A Light That Never Goes Out

Probably the most covered Smiths track. Many covers however are pale copies of the original and offer nothing new. Even though I don't think the original can be bettered, here are my selections:

Null Device
Anberlin

I could just as easily have gone for covers by The Divine Comedy, TM Schneider, Pilot Scott Tracy, or live covers by The Ocean Blue or Neil Finn.

Please vote for your preference!
