Great Cover(s)
Johnny C:
If you can play m4a files (i.e. have iTunes) then I suggest you go here for Biz Markie singing "Bennie And The Jets," originally by Elton John. It is a good decision.
Will:
I can't believe I forgot one of my personal favorite covers; The Deftones version of Sade's "No Ordinary Love." Simply brilliant, so 'twas.
/likes a lot of the Deftones covers.
//also likes slashies

seconded. seconded SO HARD.
The Ditty Bops covering The Everly Brothers' "Bye-Bye Love" may be the happiest breakup song ever recorded. I didn't think they could outdo my love of all things Simon & Garfunkel, but I cannot resist it.
I'm not crazy about Imogen Heap or Footloose, but I really enjoy Frou Frou's version of "Holding Out For A Hero."
brilliance: Ted Leo singing "Since U Been Gone"

While we're talking about Nick Cave covers, the cover of "God Is In The House" by the Paperchase is pretty excellent...I don't know how, but somehow that band manages to make everything they do sound creepy. Nick Cave's version of this song was pretty cynical and all, but the Paperchase cover just makes me want to curl myself into the fetal position and whimper for my mother...
