    Britney Spears - Slave.
    Every cover I've heard of this song has been absolute shit. The beats to this are genius - I applaud you, Neptunes!:)

    I've heard some excellent Muse covers, but none quite match the originals - Only Thom Yorke could get closest perhaps :D

    Eurythmics' "Sweet Dreams" - I don't think the Marilyn Manson cover even touches it.

    A lot of songs on Fleetwood Mac's 'Rumours' I don't think can be covered properly (yes, I know Glee did it, not well I don't think).

    Pretty much any Kylie song. She just has such a distinctive voice and her music is very her..can't imagine any one else doing her stuff (well maybe Dannii as her voice is similar:o )

    Oh and I also suggest No Scrubs by TLC:)

    Always thought 'Like an angel passing through my room' by Abba, but Madonna does a great version, from 1997, never released, although on youtube

    Probably stairway to heaven, im don't know much of Led Zeppelin but that song is pretty damn good.
    I can't imagine any cover beating the original there :)
    ...apart from justin bieber perhaps :(:p

    It has been bettered. The DEFINITIVE version. :p

    Pretty much anything ol' Mike Patton's ever put his vocals to I can't imagine sounding right sung by anyone else, mainly because his voice is so superb and also because the songs are usually feckin' mental.

    You should hear the prince written beats they took it off.

    Mind you they tweaked it here and there with modern production techniques but there is a similarity.

    There is a similarity, but the synths over it are completely different. They're what make it magic, along with Britney's gasping, extremely horny voice. It's like it's completely tuneless, but it sounds so right at the same time? I don't know. It's hard to explain. I just love the bump'n'grind style of the track.:)

    Man Down - Rihanna

    I think Lady Saw or Diana King would easily be able to cope with this.
