ok we need this thread here.

I just heard a Cake cover of Aretha Franklin's "I will survive", and it was realy freaking cool.

yeah, he did a good job. If only we didn't have to edit it.

Anyway, I like Big Head Todd and the Monsters' cover of Led Zeppelin's "Tangerine." Rare is the LedZep cover that even does justice to the song, let alone bring something new to it. But they did it.

I've heard two really good ones as of late. Bad Religion doing "Tainted Love", and Less than Jake doing Cheap Trick's "Surrender".

I Like MC Hawkings cover/parody of "Anarchy in the UK", entitled "UFTfortheMC". That and his Led Zepplin cover.

I'm tickled to death by Joss Stone's cover of the White Stripes'  "Fell In Love With A Girl".

I love The Donnas' cover of "Keep On Lovin' You" and of course Alien Ant Farm's take on "Smooth Criminal"
