    me personally, I love what Ryan did but Oasis has it cos its so iconic. 1 nil to those manc tossers.

    The original is a classic, I had never heard of the Bryan Adams version and wish I hadn't.  But Flowers Pops is the nuts.

    Big fan of Ryan (not Bryan @cfgs ) Adams' music but turned out he's not a nice person.

    Think the Oasis version is the better but the Mike Flowers Pop original from 1969 is cool too.

    That Ryan Adams one is a real stinker. The sort of emotional-lite crap that's made for people who don't really like music. It seems to be the antithesis of what Oasis were about. It'll probably end up in a John Lewis ad. The original is absolutely great and wins this little match up hands down.

    I hadn't heard the Flowers version before, I did enjoy it but suspect that was more down to the video and the overall aesthetic than the music.

    Wonderwall is a brilliant tune. If you're an amateur guitarist, it would be quite acceptable to do a little finger-picked version of it at the open mic night at your local boozer. If you're a professional musician backed by a record company, you really ought to make any cover versions your own, not just drone out a generic styled acoustic number. The one artist who has done this brilliantly with Wonderwall is Paul Anka.

    Adam’s is crap, and Oasis has that appalling voice, Mike Flowers is the best but in my opinion it is a very low grade song indeed.

    God I hate that song! Doesn't matter who is singing it, it's still shite.

    Original had an Addick on drums.  So, no contest.

    Original closely followed by flowers with Adams a long way behind

    That Ryan Adams version is terrible. As Stig said, it definitely has the feel of a John Lewis Christmas ad song.
