One of my favourite tracks is
"Tu quieres volver" by Gypsy Kings
There is, however, a way more beautiful remake of it, sung by Sarah Brightman.
Speaking of reggea
I have pink floyd's DarkSide of the Moon

I meant music, so no smart comments.
Edited to add that having seen Calista's post, I had no idea that Foo Fighters had done a version of 'Band On The Run'.
Excellent version, as is the Foo Fighters version of Gerry Rafferty's 'Baker Street'
Nirvanas cover of bowies "the man who sold the world".

Would anyone dare suggest that Leona Lewis' cover of Coldplay's "Run" was better than the original? Cos it's not. She's murdered it with her bloody warbling.
Silly bint.
I do, however, like a few of Hayseed Dixies covers, and Tiesto's version of the Pirates theme track is great!
*Him*
I quite like Prince's version of 'Betcha By Golly Wow' which was originally a track by The Stylistics
