Original or Cover??

So this week in class we were given the opportunity to listen to Jimi Hendrix and  one of the songs that really stood out to me that he performed was Fire. I really really like the drum and guitar part that starts the song. The song was even good enough for me to Shazam ;) Anyways, for not listening to that kind of music on a daily basis, I really enjoyed listening to it. The song defiantly changed my perspective towards his music. To me his voice is unique and that's why I like it. Not one you could easily forget! Another song that we listened to was the cover of Fire by the Red Hot Chili Peppers. We compared these two in class and if I had to pick which one I like better, I think I'd have to go with the Jimi Hendrix one. Not because I'm not a huge fan of the Chili Peppers, it's just that the version by Hendrix stood out to me more and it was easier to listen to and digest. Don't get me wrong, the other one is pretty cool, but in my point of view, I was defiantly more impressed with the version done by Jimi Hendrix.
