Hmm....same here. 😉 DJ Sammy did a cover of that, BTW..check it out.


Anyway, Hole did a good cover of Garbage's "Stupid Girl," Led Zepplin did a nice one of Deep Purple's "Smoke on the Water," and...hmmm...I also have a pretty good cover of that same song done by Black Sabbath.

And don't forget Richard Cheese. 😀

Anything by Richard Cheese. Chop Suey is a great one.

Cat Power does an excellent Wonderwall. Plays the song the way it should be played IMO.

In fact she has a "covers" album and the "Naked if I wanted" Moby Grape cover rules as well.

Bollweevils did a good "Jenny (867-5309)"
Screeching Weasel did a great "Let the sun shine in" (Pebbles and Bam Bam)

But that Cat Power Wonderwall is the best I can think of off the top of my head.
