Why is this under Pop?

And I I've been listening to Coheed when I need to chill.

Quietly. Cause his voice makes it a little less chill. xD

Babe I'm Gonna Leave You-Joan Baez covered by Led Zeppelin
Hallelujah-Leonard Cohen covered by Jeff Buckley
The First Cut Is The Deepest-Cat Stevens covered by Sheryl Crow
And a classic:
R-E-S-P-E-C-T-Otis Redding covered by Aretha Franklin
Too many Beatles songs to name!

Red Hot CHili Peppers have a plethora of great covers

Fire(Jimi Hendrix)

Higher Ground(Stevie Wonder)

If You Want Me to Stay(Sly and The Family Stone)

plus guitarist John Frusciante does a cool cover of Elton John's Tiny Dancer, albeit a short one

honestly i could go on and on
