Eyal Amir - Moves Like Jagger
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f8gffhbeUhs

Holy shit, Ninet Tayib is incredible! She's kind of like like an Indian Bjork. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NplotXDlY2k&feature=relmfu

[Pope Pixie Pickle]

Hot Chip - Transmission
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xjm7-7tstwY


Ok, this might push some people over the edge.  You kind of have to like Hot Chip's style to get it.

was expecting to shout "BLASPHEMER! NO! BADWRONG!"  but it's got the same amount of atmosphere (although a different vibe) as the original.

Also, Red Band....an Israeli puppet cover band....lol
M.I.A. Paper Planes

[LMNO]

[Eater of Clowns]

Gary Jules - Mad World

I'm glad somebody remembered that one.  It's great.

Nina Tayeb (& Red Band) - Crazy
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rE2EWYdXQFI

Holy shit that's cool.

And my rebuttal:

Oh, and I fucking love this one.  Sort've strange vimeo link because it's not on youtube:

Rainbow Connection - Weezer Ft. Hayley Williams

[Dildo Argentino]

Cibelle - Green Grass

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0yPMdWxSxUg

I wouldn't say "better than", 'cause the original is amazing:

but it is easily as good as, and very original in its mood.

[Dildo Argentino]

Prince - Whole Lotta Love

[Bu🤠ns]

I swear everything Prince touches turns to gold.

Angie - Tori Amos
Enjoy the Silence - Tori Amos
/obligatory

[AFK]

I disagree on that last one, the only band that has been able to do Enjoy The Silence better was Depeche Mode themselves when they re-mixed it for some compilation.
