I’ll start with one that blew the original performer away.

Originally by Nine Inch Nails

[Crazywolf]

Originally from a Broadway musical called Carousel written by Rodgers and Hammerstein.

Down the years the song has been covered by dozens of different people but the Elvis version is one of my favourites.

[Phoenix]

Gone Away. Originally by The Offspring. Both versions are amazing. This video pushes it further though. You can see and feel every emotion.
The Offspring - Gone Away

[Crazywolf]

Another one.



The original by Nina simone is good as well but way different and much slower tempo.
There was also a decent rock version by The Animals.

[Dnafein]

Originally by Pulp. Shatner delievered the tone needed to paint the insult in the girls behavior.

[Pad]

This is my favourite Nirvana song anyway, but Otep brings it to a whole other level!

I love all of Leo Moracchioli's covers on Frog Leap Studios as well. Some favourites of mine that he's done include...

Gorillaz - Feel Good Inc.
Prodigy - Breathe
Dire Straits - Sultans of Swing
Britney Spears - Toxic

and

The Wheels on The Bus
