A low scoring day saw the Nightwish cover as the preferred version to the onstage original of Phantom of the Opera.

Overall score:
Originals 6 - 6 Covers

Rules:
• 24 hours
• No alts
• Etc., etc., you're on board 8, you know how all this stuff works by now.
• I obviously can't guarantee you listen to both versions but if you say or imply you didn't or vote based on some other reasoning other than which version you prefer your vote won't count.
• You're only voting between the two versions listed. You can't vote for another cover version.

Original - Leonard Cohen:

Cover - John Cale:

To make it very clear, I am very interested in what you think about Jeff Buckley, k.d. lang, Rufus Wainwright and the other 7000 covers of this song; feel free to discuss them at length.

But votes for them will be ignored.

This was my thought as well, I thought that was considered the definitive version.
