I like the Limp Bizkit version over the original.

Wow, I thought that would be a no contest. But, I still have to choose the Who. It jives with my memories of the good old days.

Duran Duran - Ordinary World (original)

Ordinary World - Duran Duran

Red - Ordinary World (remake recent)

Ordinary World - Red

While i think the remake is good, i think the original by Duran Duran is the best one.
