I only have two live versions: one electric, one acoustic.  Could someone is this a live only thing?  Is it a cover?  If so, who did the original?
 
Thanks.

Don't Change is a cover song, originally by INXS. Goos version is way better! I don't think there is an actual version that was recorded in a studio.

If you want to hear the original INXS version, it's on their "Shabooh Shoobah" album, which is still one of my most favorites ever.  
 
Both bands do a fine job with this song.

I think Grinspoon or Greenday did a cover of that song too, and it got in the top 40 2 years or so ago.
