Chris Daughtry's New Take On GaGa's Poker Face

Posted 7/2/2009 at 1:35pm by Ali

Chris Daughtry tops our list for best "Poker Face" cover. Here, he's seen performing his acoustic version of Lady Gaga's hit live on the radio in Germany.

Daughtry's new album, "Leave This Town," goes on sale July 14.

Who do you think did it better, Lady GaGa or Chris Daughtry???

I'm not much of a Lady Gaga fan although I do like her studio recording of Poker Face. But Chris' soulful touch is so much better than hers.

Chris is great but oh pleeeeze!

It is Lady Gaga's song so she ought to know how to sing it best. SHE IS AMAZING! Love her. Fabulous voice, musician, and stage presence. Uh yeh, she does her own song

I have to admit that i looove this version from Lady Gaga herself (very strong voice)...but I'm also stunned by Chris Daughtry's version. He has such a fantastic voice!! So..for me it's a tie ;-)

There is no contest here. Chris sounds much better. This is like having a contest between William Hung and Celine Dion. Two opposite ends of the spectrum.
