Great cover versions

That really is quite superbly done.

Has the forum had an acoustic guitar version of Henry Mancini's Pink Panther theme?

This is new to me. Pretty epic. Hendrix covering 'Gloria':

I do like a bit of Hendrix, but for me, there is only one outstanding cover of Gloria. Patti Smith made it all her own to the extent I'm not sure it even counts as a 'cover'.

And as live performances go, this is quite something...

"So Long, Farewell" from Laibach's Sound of Music. Milan Fras' rendition raises a laugh every time.

That whole album makes me

Hope this hasn't been posted. It has been around since ... well before this site! 1994 to be precise.

A super-group I wish had stayed together (even though I didn't know they'd existed):

Weezer's cover of "Paranoid Android" from a few years ago.  Oh, the lead guitarist's not really as good as Jonny, say Radiohead fans.  You do need to take into account that he's normally the drummer!

Random selection on my music library came up with this reggae cover of 'Compared To What' tonight, which I wasn't previously aware that I possessed. It's great!

One of those 'what's the point?' covers and the singer is shite.
