'Zombie' by the Cranberries or 'Zombie' by Fela Kuti?

I was just reading that thread about emo bands not covering 'Zombie', and I thought that this would get some interesting responses.

Fela Kuti FTW, BTW.

Fela's might be a musical landmark, one of the most powerful protest songs ever written, the pinnacle of its genre, a sick party jam, etc., but only one of these songs has ever helped me get back at the neighbors' dog for barking at 3:00 AM, so Cranberries win I'm afraid.

The first one sounds more like it was created by actual zombies. So that's cool. But it's hard to love a zombie that can't dance.

one of them is awfully good, whereas the other one splendidly shitty. Too hard to choose, so I'll pick The Zombies.
