Covers that are quite different from the original song
I was listening to Sun Kil Moon's cover of Modest Mouse's "Ocean Breathes Salty". I think I actually like it better than the original for it's acoustic nature.
So throw out some other radically different covers, whether they're better or worse than the original. Quote:

Rasputina's cover of Pink Floyd's "Wish you were here."
Can't say I've heard the original, but Rasputina's version is hot. Cellos = Hotness ![]() Maplebee's covers of Doris Day's "Perhaps Perhaps." Have to say once again I've never heard the original, but Maplebee's version is bonkers. |

Cash's version is good, but I'll always prefer the original.

Bowie's covers in general are rather different (Not really his Pin-Ups stuff), specifically Cactus (The Pixies) and Pablo Picasso (The Modern Lovers) though.

I forgot A Perfect Circle's covers album. There's a bunch of songs on there but the covers of Imagine by John Lennon and What's Goin On by Marvin Gaye are pretty sweet (though some people will consider them blasphemy, no doubt)
