I didn't realize that Elbow song was a cover! I first heard it here a long time ago: http://www.rathergood.com/independent_woman
The Magic Numbers covered Crazy In Love too. Also, I heard a hilarious acoustic cover of "Baby One More Time" performed by Travis.

that Elbow cover is great, definetly sounds like it should be on rathergood.com :) glad that it is.
The Horrors also do a cover of No Love Lost, tis a lot angrier than the LCD one but still very good.

Dude... I'm in love with you... musically, that is.
My ears are single currently so, right now I consider your 8tracks formally engaged with them with the intent to marry. Enough with this abusive relationship the radio has put them through over the last 10 years.

I really hate U2. (Sorry guys) However, Johnny Cash made me adore that song.

don't apologise. u2 are (apart from a couple of songs from years ago) shite.

Great to hear some of the not so obvious covers. John Martyn covering Portishead, just, should not work - but is amazing.
I've put together my own collection of, mostly, less obvious covers - here:

The Smalls cover of Natural Woman http://8tracks.com/messianicrebel/cover-me-with-music first track, I argue is funnier than Independants cover.
Nice playlist so far though.

This cover of Borderline is the best thing I've heard in a week.
