    I'd be incredibly surprised if I found another cover quite like this.
    Beyoncé's pop-by-numbers song gets turned into an achingly beautiful, grotesque, obsessive, haunting, desperate masterpiece. I'm out of adjectives.

    this is great, though that kinda goes without saying:

    and how could anybody not be a fan of molly:

    edit: i've suddenly realised the covers aren't supposed to sound like the original.. and the above does.

    so um anyway i'm too cool to care. B)

    These.

    The Everything in it's Right Place one is my favorite, probably.

    Chris Cornell's cover of that is definitely worthy of this thread.

    Well, someone already beat me to Hurt by Johnny Cash and No Quarter by Tool....

    lemme think....

    This was a pretty good one, if i like it almost as much as the original it's done a good job, imo, especially since Tears for Fears are one of my faves! =P

    It's also from my favourite film of ALL time.
