I was actually listening to my favourite cover as I read through this thread! It's not famous or anything but Ben Howard's cover of "Call Me Maybe" Is brilliant!

OK I have gone through all posts so far and the following are missing:
(Hence they are likely unpopular, but I love them)

Oingo Boingo - You really got me
The Bobs - Helter Skelter
Bonerama - Ocean
Bonerama - Helter Skelter
Zappa - Whipping Post
Zappa - Bolero
Hendrix - National Anthem

All are on Itunes. Bonerama is the only currently working band. Maybe the Bobs are still around.

Fun Post. Thanks
