Dweezil Zappa : Hit me baby

That's just something so awesome. If you've never heard it, go hear it NOW! OMG his voice is so sexy and he gives the songs such an edge.

I'm not sure if these count as covers but I really liked how the songs were done in Moulin Rouge, I thought it was awesome, especially Like a Virgin

There are probably more that I just can't remember right now, I'll probably post more at some point.

"Simple Man" - Shinedown

"Behind Blue Eyes" - Limp Bizkit

J. Lo's "I'm Real" - Starting Line

Running up that Hill - Within Temptation [Like it more then the original.]

Zero - Evanescence [One of my favourite SP songs - they did well.]

Knockin' On Heaven's Door - Avril Lavinge [Oh shut up, I like that song.]
