-Tainted Love-Marilyn Manson, Soft Cell does it great though
-Personal Jesus-manson again
-and I like his rendition of sweet dreams, but Annie Lennox man, can't be beat....
-also love his version of Bowies Golden Years, but it is not betta
-It's My Life- No Doubt

now that I see all this, Manson did alot of other peoples songs....well, I think he is just respecting them by giving his young fans a little bit of culture.....

Metallica also did a way better version of Stone Cold Crazy. I love Queen more than the next guy cause Ill tell you their better than Zeppelin but their version can't hold a candle to Metallica.
