The Way It Is by Bruce Hornsby

Since I heard "Changes (The Way It Is)" by Tupac, I love that version of the song (even though it isn't really a cover, but still...

Hit Me Baby One More Time by G4 on X Factor. Absolutely hilarious, especially the little chubby one on the end :D

Oh, this is going to sound silly... but I really like the BeeGee's "Emotions" covered by Destiny's Child.
Unlike rock bands covering songs, this one isn't destroyed.

Holding out for a Hero sounds great when re-done by Frou Frou but before it was bleh.

I have to agree with some you:

"99 Red Balloons" - Goldfinger
Anything by Me First and the Gimme Gimmes. Great cover band.

Some that haven't been mentioned:

"Close to Me" (The Cure) - The Get Up Kids
Speed Racer Theme (somebody) - Sponge
"Ceremony" (Joy Division) - Galaxie 500
"Always Something There to Remind Me" (Naked Eyes) - Marvelous 3
"Sweet Dreams" (Eurythmics) - Marilyn Manson
"Blue Monday" (New Order) - Orgy. I haven't heard this song in ages, I just remember it to be good. :)

There's more that I can't think of.

Oh also another great cover song by Blink-182...

Jenny (8675309)

I've only heard The Phantom of the Opera by Me First And The Gimme Gimmes
The album is called Me First And The Gimme Gimmes Are A Drag and it's covers of songs from musicals.

Well, Angels by Robbie Williams is not too shabby.. though not my favorite song.. but perhaps by favorite cover... I think... maybe!

Geez, can't think of any other cover songs I really like at all.

Oh, now I know! I really like Janet Jackson's cover "Got Til It's Gone", that's a cover :P

Time After Time - The Dolbyettes
Boys of Summer - The Ataris
Changes - Butterfly Boucher (with David Bowie, of course)
You Belong to Me - Jason Wade
Morning has Broken - Cat Stevens (it was an old religious song written by Eleanor Farjeon)

Is that a remake of the Destiny Child song? Or did Destiny Child remake that?
