'With A Little Help From My Friends' sounds awesome coming out of Joe Cocker's mouth. I didn't really like the original, though...seems passionless.
I used to prefer that version as well and dislike the original, but now it's grown on me a lot, and I like both versions.
Thing is Ringo just can't sing, so they had to lower the key and make it into a 'Ringo's shit voice' friendly tune. Still, I do like Ringo. He's definitely the coolest living Beatle. His son Zach is now drummer in Oasis, which is pretty cool if you ask me.
It's not that he can't sing, he just has a lower and smaller range than the others. I think his voice has a very good quality that I enjoy listening to. Also, when I sing along, I enjoy when that rare Ringo song comes up, because, being in a lower and smaller range, they're much easier to sing. It's like Pepto Bismol for my voice. ^_^
