Cover Band

I just heard a cover of The Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald by The Dandy Warhols. Whaaa? What is a supposedly hip and happening band redoing a 70s Gordon Lightfoot song about a ship wreck? It is not as strange as the Pearl Jam and Tragically Hip instrumental cover of that song. Completely pointless exercise. Even more ridiculous than a dance remake of MacArthur Park I heard once.

So people, tell me what cover song bugs you, amuses you or you adore.

To redeem those Dandy Warhols, they do an awesome cover of Call Me.
