Lindsey is so adorable. LOL

Most of mine are already mentioned. Cash's Hurt, Manson's Tainted Love and Sweet Dreams (Are Made of This)

I also like Giant Drag's cover of Wicked Games

there are a few that come to mind

The Imagine Dragons did a cover of Revolution (The Beatles)

Annie Lennox and Dave Stewart did a cover of Fool on the Hill (The Beatles)

Joe Cocker does a much better rendition of You Can leave Your Hat On than the writer Randy Newman

Eric Clapton does a great cover of San Francisco Bay Blues - written by Jesse Fuller and performed by Fuller and Joe Cocker

I love The Beach Boys but I think David Lee Roth did a perfect cover of California Girls

Do I really like this cover as well as the original by the Cranberries? Honestly, no, but I think it’s pretty cool that the band, Bad Wolves, donated all the proceeds from this cover to the children of Dolores O’Riordan. She was set to sing with Bad Wolves on their cover of “Zombie,” she passed out drunk in her hotel bathtub and drowned.

The model in gold paint mirrors the original video with Dolores O’Riordan.
