    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

    I haven't read through all 8 (!) pages, so there are probably duplicates, but here are mine:

    Cake - War Pigs
    Johnny Cash - Personal Jesus
    They Might Be Giants - Istanbul (not Constantinople)
    Red Hot Chilli Peppers - Higher Ground
