Best Cover ever

[Weevil]

What is your fave cover song ever? I don't just mean a cover song that you enjoy but a really weird cover in which an artist has chosen a really odd song to cover.

I have three

Devo doing "Head like a Hole"
Fountains of Wayne doing "Hit me baby, one more time"
Matthew Sweet doing "Lithium"

HEY!! you got a problem with Head Like a Hole!?

Well, I have a problem with NIN. They suck. But Devo does a much better version. Go forth and seek it out! The Music Snob commands you!

Also, I'm really liking "Smooth Criminal" by Alien Ant Farm

oooooo.... dem's FIGHTIN' words!!

as for Smooth Criminal, the vid is cool, but the song by its own isn't anything special.

I guess. I just really like their version of the song.

Fightin' words? I suppose its all subjective but from a purely music snob point of view their overblown and as my friend Jake puts it they're "Fish Barrel" music.
