This song is sadly overlooked in the discussion of the greatest cover songs ever made. FF stayed true to the original song but still managed to make it their own. It is easily recognizable as Baker Street, but also easily recognizable as a Foo Fighters song!

GR's original is amazing and one of the best songs in rock. FF made a cover that to me is brilliant. It is completely original yet they play every note of the original. They learned the song note for note, nuance for nuance and then took it apart and put it back together as their own. I've read all the comments below. Why compare? They are both art; they both stand on their own; and they are both brilliant. I dare any band (including my own) to take an iconic song, and make it original yet keep every nuance. To the comment about DG's voice, he nailed GR's vibe. Amazing work, as we have come to expect. Thank you!

Winding your way down on Baker Street Light in your head and dead on your feet Well, another crazy day You'll drink the night away And forget about everything This city desert makes you feel so cold It's got so many people, but it's got no soul And it's taken you so long To find out you were wrong When you thought it held everything You used to think that it was so easy You used to say that it was so easy But you're trying, you're trying now Another year and then you'd be happy Just one more year and then you'd be happy But you're crying, you're crying now Way down the street there's a light in his place He opens the door, he's got that look on his face And he asks you where you've been You tell him who you've seen And you talk about anything He's got this dream about buying some land He's gonna give up the booze and the one-night stands And then he'll settle down In some quiet little town And forget about everything But you know he'll always keep moving You know he's never gonna stop moving 'Cause he's rolling, he's the rolling stone And when you wake up, it's a new morning The sun is shining, it's a new morning And you're going, you're going home

A lot of covers fail to deliver the underlying "feel" of the song but FF did a great job of keeping it intact despite the sax being replaced by guitar. It flat out rocks.

This is perhaps the best cover of a Gerry Rafferty song that I've ever heard in my life. At the time that this cover version was originally recorded, I could not find it on any Foo Fighters CD. I found out later on that it was only released on a Japanese import that they had done and was also the b-side to the song "My Hero." I used to hear this cover version just about every night after I'd get home from work on 96.5 The Mountain WDOD, which was then an alternative formatted station. Now they're just a pop formatted station, but they used to play some really great material back then that I couldn't hear no where else and that was where I discovered this cover version at, which Capitol has since released on the 10th anniversary edition of "The Colour And The Shape."

Best cover song of any song by any band I’ve ever heard !!! Paying total respect to the original while putting their own stamp on it ! Awesome !

Dave Grohl seems like he relates to hearing this song while riding in the back seat of his mom's car in the 70s ...legs sticking to vinyl seats of her Ford LTD, getting bitched out for spilling his Slurpee and his "no good dad" forgetting to pay child support. Have no clue if this is remotely his childhood, but I feel he was one of "us"

Hallo Friedi: Genau! The greats always give tribute to fellow greats. This song and cover is no exception. The Beatles had a HUGE catalog of covers. This is how one becomes better and relevant. . .thanks, Foos. . .
