The Mike Flowers Pops did a slow Andy Williams style swing version of Wonderwall which I think is inspired, especially with the nostalgia for sixties derived pop culture during that time: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vy1ueZf1WMQ
Whats everyone strangest or worst cover of a song over the past few decades?
I know there a few, but it just seems to the same one over and over again, I has there ever been any Cover songs of Hard rock/mental by pop Bands?
Sheryl Crow did Sweet Child of Mine and, in-famously, Sugababes and Girls Aloud did Walk This Way, which also qualifies as possibly the worst cover ever.

I don't know about 'bizarre' but anyone who can actually sing is going to improve a Slayer song, surely?
Heresy!!!!!!!!!
Hearing The Saturdays covering that same song was quite a strange one too.
