Music Monday: Good Covers

Some covers of well-known songs made me smile recently.

First, the Beastie Boys and Biz Markie made me laugh out loud with an Elton John cover:
Benny and the Jets

Then, Gnarls Barkley covered the Femmes:
Gone Daddy Gone

After which, the Femmes covered Gnarls Barkley:
Crazy

That last one might be the greatest cover of all time. It's right up there with Iron & Wine's cover of one of my favorite New Order Tunes:
Love Vigilantes

Covers and remixes make me happy. Coming soon: Good Remixes.
