Alex Chilton at the beginning of his historic, brief run taking Todd Rundgren's sort of Elton John-ish rock song and turning it into a drunken live glorious mess with a great fncked up guitar solo too and cracked voice...next up would be Radio City when he'd go from being a talented and interesting guy to being the patron saint of at least 2 genres.

Cyndi Lauper had 2 big hits with 2 of the oddest covers - Girls Just Want Have Fun (Robert Hazard) which is basically a song about girls wanting to fnck Rock Stars - it's not the song people think of as a feminist anthem until a girl sang it .....but even better originally was The Brains 1978 classic "Money Changes Everything" - which was one of the 70s angriest new wave songs which had nothing fun, funny or sexy about it at all.....and like the Arrows "I Love Rock and Roll" nobody knows it's a cover anyway...... Here's the original, one of a kind song:

If you're a fan of any cult artist one of the things you notice is they are never the "best" at anything as a musician - Paul Westerberg isn't "the best" songwriter" ever - he's just the one you identify with......same with Johnny Thunders as a guitarist.....but Alex Chilton well he could make a case as being the legit most gifted singer in Rock history - he was that great.
This is his greatest vocal, an eerie and ghostly take on the standard and it's what his followers at least - of whom he has many - couldn't really do:

This came out earlier this Summer and it's as bad-ass as you might expect and it's also clever too - takes swipes at the Beat Generation, Generation X and Generation Z in this cover.
Besides being one of the last true genuine Rock stars (a dying breed), a great guitarist/songwriter White is also a covers specialist (that's also a dying breed btw) and has popped up a few times in this thread .......at every stage of his career.

From a dynamite covers album - his last - this piece of cultural appropriation is gloriously out of fashion in 2020 but so am I so it's ok I guess...... ........a re-working of the Chambers Brothers song......

Bad-ass cover of the relatively obscure Jody Reynolds 1950's original.......

Jesus - mid-March and the first great cover of the year - that's pathetic The Muffs "Big Mouth" Kim Shattuck in the photo at the beginning one of a million great songs she wrote- done by the 2 Dan's of her peers from Screeching Weasel and The Riverdales fame Dan Panic and Dan Vapid and their great producer Mass Giorgini playing bass. So it's a 90s reunion party all in one shot............and a cute dog. Only missing Kim's roooooaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaar - RIP
