While the original Bowie version of “Heroes” is great, I think Peter Gabriel’s Cover is a really cool interpretation. The Postmodern Jukebox has some really awesome covers as well.
While not as good as the original. I think the video of 2Cellos covering Thunderstruck just kicks so much ass. Rodrigo y Gabriella’s cover of Orion is sublime.
99 Red Balloons by Nena. The original was also by her but in German “99 Luftballons.”
Nobody wants to listen to music in German, not even Germans. It’s got a bizarre combination of intense guttural noises and dopey-like exaggerated vowel sounds. It’s like listening to Goofy do an impression of a Klingon.

I prefer Marilyn Manson’s version of Tainted Love.
This drives my wife nuts as she loves the one done by Soft Cell.
When I say nuts, I mean stark staring mad! :D
