People shouldn't just post names of the covers, that's just annoying. Agree with Shadowplay, The Man Who Sold The World and the AM covers.

 

A few I can think of:

This is a cover of a Natalie Imbruglia song, not Coldplay:

 

 

Oh! I've been trying to find out who sang the original to this song. I even google'd the lyrics, but maybe I fail or something because I couldn't find anything.

 

 

 

Some of my favorites:

 

[ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3TLjeA19F9M]YouTube- Sia | Paranoid Android (Radiohead Cover)[/ame]

 

Not the best quality, but:

also beautifully covered by David Bowie, but in English:

[ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X8-lyoDfpRc&feature=related]YouTube- KT Tunstall - Fake plastic tree (radiohead cover)[/ame]

 

And:

I also love Ivan Ferreiro's medley of High And Dry and Don't Let Me Down, but I can't find a video of it.

Oh my god, that Paranoid Android cover is lovely. I forgot about the Rufus cover of Across the Universe, I love it.

 

Also I clearly said Natalie Imbruglia sang the original...

I know. Sorry I wasn't clear, but I guess I should have said thank you.

 

But, yeah. Sia's voice is so haunting in that cover, I love it.

I forgot this one:

 

[ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F37d7SB9y9E]YouTube- Klaxons - No Diggity (Blackstreet Cover)[/ame]

Jeff Buckley's Hallelujah, Jeff Buckley's Lilac Wine, Jeff Buckley's Corpus Christi Carol

[ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X4MAvwwhiPE]YouTube- Thank you Steven Wilson[/ame]

too many videos :dizzy:

James Blunt - Where is my mind

 

 

 

WHY WHY WHY WHY WHY WHY WHY WHY WHY??!?!?

 

Ruining a brilliant song

Oh god no he didn't :disappointed:

 

This is the only Pixies cover I can listen to:

 

[ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T5F2iI6cO-4]YouTube- The Frames - Where Is My Mind? (Pixies) - live Fonda, September 6, 2007[/ame]

 

It's still not as good as the original, but The Frames sound is so similar that they actually pull it off.
