Ah, so it is, as I know see many pointed that out in the comments section on YouTube. I personally never read the comments section of YouTube because many subhuman miscreants post there.
Thanks for the info.
I’ve probably mentioned it before but this Spanish punk classic is a cover. Not saying of what, just that you will know the original. I love watching people’s reactions when they recognize it. Some find it offensive, some hilarious, but I’ve never seen a mild reaction.
I had a project in France last year where the client only brought two women to meetings (in a team of over 90 people). One had the original as her ringtone, the other one a French cover.
I prefer the Pretenders cover of Creep to the original.
Primus doing Pink Floyd’s ‘Have a Cigar’.
Susannah Hoffs doing Rod Stewart’s ‘Maggie May’
A recent, rather spectacular, release: Sturgill Simpson doing Nirvana’s “In Bloom”.
“Boyz In The Hood” by Dynamite Hack.
The Austin Lounge Lizards doing Pink Floyd’s “Brain Damage”.
Cameo’s “Word Up” by KoRn.
Finally, Ben Folds and Rufus Wainwright doing Wham’s! “Careless Whisper”.
Coil “Tainted Love” (originally by Soft Cell)
I might get some flack for this one but it absolutely blew my mind.
Train- Yes, that Train, doing a reallly credible Led Zeppelin II Album cover.
The Lemon Song is particularly well done.
Okay, I got one, but first a little set up.

I was there when this was recorded. There was not a dry eye in the place.
You misspelled Gloria Jones. 
Social Distortion - Ring of Fire (originally by Johnny Cash)
Johnny Cash - Hurt (originally NiN)
That was really amazing.
