Framing hanley's cover of Lil' Wayne's "Lollipop" is really good
Muse's cover of Michael Buble's "Feeling good" is just amazing.

also there's

Marilyn Manson-"You spin me right round" (original by dead or alive)

A day to remember-"Since u been gone" (I personally don't like kelly clarkson)

And I like the Vanilla Sky's version of "Umbrella" better than Rihanna's.

You think "You Spin Me Right Round" is a bad song?

I've said it before elsewhere and I'll say it here because, well it suits perfectly...

Richard Cheese - Down With The Sickness

Holy Diver is a really good cover. Most of the metal fans I've talked to like it. And it surprises me but it's completly understandable.

I just personally like MM's version better. But I wouldn't call it bad

[[Read the title. It's in capitals.]]

I know what you mean, though. I like his version as well.

If anything, he's just changing it up to his own style. And I can respect artists that aren't afraid to do that.
