Boyce Avenue's version of Just The Way You Are is superb. Has that romantic vibe that the Bruno Mars version was just missing.

I quite like Ellie Goulding's version of Your Song better than Elton's.

The Civil Wars' covers of Disarm (original by The Smashing Pumpkins)


Plus their unrecognisable from the original cover of Jackson 5's I Want You Back

Both imo bring something totally new and fresh to a modern classic. Not easy to do...

Will Young has done some brilliant covers becuse he puts his own stamp on them.

Hey Ya, Dontcha, Blame it on the Sun & Running Up that Hill are a few of my favourites.

Most covers of man in the mirror are better than Michael Jacksons imo

I also prefer the dixie chicks cover of landslide over fleetwood macs but I'm not sure if I would go as far to say its a better cover :P

Kelly Osbourne's version of Papa don't preach is quite good I think (serious).
