When is a cover not a cover?

Is sounding like the original, nearly exactly like the original, a good thing or a bad thing? I really like Faith No More’s cover of War Pigs but it’s so close to the original, maybe I just like the original and can’t tell the difference?

If you want a different take on War Pigs, track down Cakes’s cover off the Rarities and B-Sides I’d mentioned earlier this week.
