Great call with Tricky's cover of Black Steel. The best thing is that he's got his girlfriend singing the vocals, and she sings the lines: "a brother like me"...Makes me laugh.
And who was it who did that really annoying, corny-as-hell, but very catchy Neil Diamond-style cover of Wonderwall? I need to know this information people.

Mike Flowers Pops, and you should be ashamed you don't know this.

The Devo cover version pwns the original by both making it a totally hilarious and robotic anti-cover cover song which not only makes fun of the idea of Official Rock Rebellion (TM), but makes you want to dance like a robot strung out on cough syrup and JR Bob Dobbs -- pulling thee wool over thine own eyes... so to speak...

and if it can truly be called a cover, I'd agree with KCBC about "Waves Of Mutilation - UK Surf Mix", the Pixies' alternate take. Good stuff.

That song was a bit of an icepick to the eardrum, wasn't it. Also, Madonna's version of American Pie turns my bowels to water.

shatners version trumps it.

Oooh, yeah! Especially those anguished cries of "Mr. Tambourine Maaaaan!" at the end ... sheesh.
