Default What are your favorite song re-makes?

These days you hear so many remakes and most of them I don't really like all that much. However, every once and awhile, I hear one that I like.

What are some of your favorites?

Here's one I recently heard. I really liked the original version as a kid but I gotta tell ya, I really like the remake by Sugarland. Here it is on YT.

Originally cut by Dream Academy in the 80s. Life in a Northern Town.

This is one of my favorites just because it's such a drastic departure from the original.

Just checked it out on YT. Yeah, it is pretty different. Listened to Outkast version as well.

VH

"You Really Got Me"

"Pretty Woman"

Well, for that matter a lot of the VH catalog.

This is a team who is battling several major injuries to
key players including Pro Bowl talents like Lee, Austin, Jenkins, Murray,
Carter and Ratliff. Other key starters missing include Costa, Smith, Church and
Coleman. That is 11 key players - that's half the starting lineup. Yet we still went 8-8.

You could make a list of only "Hey Joe" covers.
"Bob Dylan" covers.
"Whish you were here" covers.
Pearl Jam loves to cover The Who and does a good job.
