Anything By Richard Cheese makes my heart smile.

Also, forgive me for being run of the mill, but I'm going to have to say Jimi Hendrix's version of "All Along The Watch Tower", some of you may have heard it, is fairly enjoyable.

You're right, you were run of the mill.

Marilyn Manson does great covers...Tainted Love and Sweet Dreams being the best, in my opinion. ^_^

Can't Get You Out Of My Head - The Flaming Lips

Kelly Clarkson - Crying - Aerosmith
Steven Tyler even said, and I can't remember where, but he said she has the potential of being one of the biggest artists of our time, and that he'd be honored if she covered it on one of her CD's. She did it on one of those WE specials, 'Women who/that Rock' I think...

Christina Aguilera - Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas - Judy Garland
I love this song so much, it's my favorite Christmas song.

Natasha Bedingfield - The Scientist - Coldplay
Her cover of it gave me goosebumps to no end. It was on one of thos Yahoo Pepsi Smash thingies. I t was really well done. A little shoddy here and there, but awesome nonetheless.

Aretha Franklin - R.E.S.P.E.C.T. - Otis Redding
Seriously, need I explain?

Whitney Houston - I Will Always Love You - Dolly Parton
IMO, Greatest love song of all time, 'Nuff said.

Celine Dion - It's All Coming Back to Me - Meatloaf
It's all about the little riff in the beginning, that does it for me, I'm a sucker for a good sounding riff.

Christina Aguilera - At Last - Etta James
I just like it.

Hilary and Haylie Duff - Our Lips Sealed - The Go-Go's
The original was great, but I like this remake becuase it sounds a bit more rockish... :D

Mariah Carey ft. Westlife - Against All Odds - Phil Collins
It's a really good cover, I like it so much, the lyrics are awesome.

Mariah Carey - Bringin' On the Heartbreak - Def Leppard
I really like how she added her flavor to the song. I loved the high notes towards the end. Shame they aren't that good live.

Mariah Carey/Kelly Clarkson - I Still Believe - Brenda K. Starr.
They both added their own flar to it, and I love both covers. (Last Mariah cover, I swear :D)

Alien Ant Farm - Smooth Criminal - Michael Jackson
It was really cool to hear this song in a rock version, very different. I loved it.

Zucchero ft. Vanessa Carlton and Haylie Ecker- Everybody's Got Learn Sometime - The Korgis
Vanessa does a great job on the piano on this one, and Zucchero's vocals are dead on.

Rascal Flatts - What Hurts the Most - Mark Willis
This song is really good, I like the lead singers voice on it.

And last but not least, and I know, I know, but c'mon, I luff her...

Katharine McPhee - Somewhere Over the Rainbow - Judy Garland
I've got the McPheever, so sue me.

...No. *shakes head*

Repeat remark to first quote. With less emphasis, but still.

Dragonfire wrote:Fountains of Wayne's cover of "...Baby One More Time" is pretty good.


I agree. They made that song actually standable.

***

"What Hurts the Most" by Rascal Flatts is good, I didn't know it was a cover, though. "House of the Rising Sun" by Muse is also good.

Anyone that says "One" by Mary J Blige gets a smack to the head.

And in agreement with other people, Death Cab for Cutie has nothing on Stars or The Smiths.

Will young's cover of Don't Cha, by Pussycat Dolls. Yes it's REAL! Not as funny as I thought it would be but makes ya smile when ya think about it.
