Unusual Cover Versions Of Fav Songs
OK new idea.
Post your fav cover version but done in a totally different style to the original version.
I'll start with this one.
Teenage Kicks. Ukulele Orchestra of Great Britain

Can't Get No Satisfaction done by Devo. The best version of that song...ever. Sorry I don't have a clip of it.

I like Radiohead's version of "Ceremony" (New Order/Joy Division); they are a great band in their own right and cover a seminal indie anthem with proficiency and respect.

Stairway to Heaven by Dread Zeppelin. How can you go wrong with an Elvis impersonator backed by a Reggae band? Black Dog rocks too.
