Eliza Carthy & Saul Rose playing Good Morning, Mr. Walker

And the original by The Mighty Sparrow who joined in one of Eliza's videos during lockdown

 

[DoctorRobert]

Haven't checked the complete threat but I think this one is still missing:

Also for all the Joe Jackson fans, if there are any here.

 

[Multicore]

Seaweed - Go Your Own Way (the Fleetwood Mac song)​

This was in the awesome movie Clerks. I think it was while they were in the care driving to the funeral home.

 

[Sir Sanders Zingmore]

Tori Amos doing Smells Like Teen Spirit back when Nirvana were still around

In a similar vein: Sinead covering All Apologies

 

[Great Sun Jester]

Rush - The entire feedback album

 

[Natchie]

I was watching Synanon documentary when I heard this rendition of California Dreaming:

 

[GandalfTheAudiofool]

I discovered this during my first trip abroad with my (now since 14 years or so) wife, while having a drink in some little pub/bar in Paris (France, not Texas)...

Moriarty cover of Depeche Mode's Enjoy the silence :

P.S: the band "Nouvelle Vague" has already been posted here... I love 'em. I'm listening to so many of their covers.

and the Coil cover of Tainted Love by SoftCell:

You do know that Soft Cell's version was itself a cover of Gloria Jones' 1964 original?

 

[bluefuzz]

The Rezillos' cover of Fleetwood Mac's 'Somebody's Gonna Get Their Head Kicked In'.

... and the original for comparison. I always thought Stevie Nicks era Fleetwood should have continued to do this number to wake up the audience ... ;-)

Time Arrow (Russia) covers Led Zep:

Fleetwood Mac's 'Somebody's Gonna Get Their Head Kicked In

Hmm, well... kind of,.... as far as I remember, it was originally Only released in 1969 as a 'Single' and was listed as being by: "Earl Vince & The Valiants"
(Not to be confused with "Vince Vance & the Valiants" who are an American novelty group from New Orleans)
with the "Fleetwood Mac" song on the 'A' side of the Single, being 'Man of the World'., here: https://audiosciencereview.com/foru...are-we-listening-to-right-now.40/post-2020500

It was written by Jeremy Spencer. I probably still have it somewhere downstairs, in a box, with all my old Beatles Singles.

Courtney Hadwin, age 13, does a rather amazing cover of Otis Redding's Hard to Handle on America's Got Talent in 2018.

Other versions of this on youtube have tens of miillions of views, but this one claims to have the best audio, and I think that's right:

 

[KaeliKoo]

Dada - Pretty Girls Make Graves (Cure cover) with some different lyrics thrown in...
