So, no love for William Hung around here? His Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer remains the definitive version. |

I thought this guy was interesting. Calls himself Popa Chubby and can play guitar with the best of them. He does quite a few excellent covers and this Hendrix tune is probably my favorite.

Heh, 'Popa Chubby' - I get it.
Seriously, though, the guy can play...

a few I like, ones that come to mind are Backyard Babies (well, just Nicke really) covering Social Distortions song 'Bad Luck' and Placebo cover of Kate Bush song.. had such a crush on Brian Molko in my early teens when first heard the band  and Seigmen cover of a DeLillos song all put there own sound and emotion to the song so it not direct copy |

I've been listening to Weep a lot lately (the band fronted by Doc Hammer, of "the Venture Brothers" fame).
and tho they do a couple of covers (including a decent cover of "Right Here, Right Now"), I think this is my favorite by them.
covering Rhianna:

The original versions aren't all favourites of mine — I strongly dislike one of them, in fact — so I'm probably doing this wrong. But anyway, some of my favourite covers:

Some good choices there. Morissette's version of "My Humps" is hilarious, and there's something weirdly compelling about those spoken-word covers that Shatner does.

Members of Devo were students at Kent State when the protesters were shot.
This cover resonates with me.

Come Together by Aerosmith is probably my favorite cover Gimmie Shelter by Sisters Of Mercy is a close second and it's damn good

Another set of good ones, Flesh & Fell's Emma
Lone Rangers- Degenerated
^the thing that irks me the most about this one is that the film Airheads had such a wide array of songs that they couldn't be asked to credit Reagan Youth at all
