The extremely awesome :nws: video which used footage from the Pokemon porn parody is gone but someone cool re-uploaded the song to Soundcloud.

I read this as Hanson covering Motorhead at first, which really would be something.

To get Capitol off their backs for taking so long on Pet Sounds, the band quickly threw together the all covers Party album, which was billed as being live in the studio. What was released was stripped down but polished. The vocals sound double tracked. Party sounds were overdubbed for the album.

Solid rock covers.

This great cover of Alanis Morissette's "Thank You" was dropped recently by Kawehi. Something good to listen to during these not-so-good times. This is the 3rd thing of Kawehi's I've posted in here for a reason; she's got a lot of kickass covers.

No Doubt covering the Vandals. My favorite Christmas song.

It still blows my mind that Stefani once sang the line 'oi to the punks and oi to the skins' and then eventually turned into the singer of Hollaback Girl

I ain't mad at cha. R&B artists always put their own spin on the Beatles' catalog. It was something different, yet familiar (and always great).

Something I only found out a few years ago, Hanging On The Telephone by Blondie (which I love) is a cover of this bitchin' power pop tune:

I love cover songs to the point of it almost being an obsession, I think my main problem is, I like so bad they're good covers. This is just a quick list of random stuff that's popped into my head.

Los Colorados doing a polka version of Hot & Cold, the most impressive thing about it being that the guy couldn't read English and he's reading the lyrics in phonetic Ukrainian.
