PrintableGotta be Word Up - classic tune. When a Spice Girl covers a song and it still sounds amazing you know its a winner!

Beverley Knight covered it on Jools Holland (I think it was on that, she def covered it somewhere) - her version prooves that she is the most underrated British singer ever. If you can't find these coveres drop me an org note and I will send them over to you if you want them. | |

-Betcha By Golly Wow. My fave version of the song is by Prince though. I think he did an amazing job covering it.
-Aint No Mountain High Enough -I Heard It Through The Grapevine -Who's Lovin' You. I Like all versions of this song including the original by The Miracles but the Jackson 5's version is the best IMO.

"Just My Imagination", there exists even a Finnish casio-reggae-whatever version of it and I can't get even that out of my head.
Actually, Prince's version is pretty shitty compared to most. | |

Co-sign. Somebody did need a  slap for even mentioning that Huey Lewis cover. | |

For sentimental reasons, the song 'Superstar' which to my knowledge was originally sung by the Carpenters.
I love the Luther Vandross cover especially. | |

Only redeeming thing about that cover was that The Art of Noise featured on it with their trademark sound. Reminds me - I once had a massive argument with some stupid woman at a partywho tried to tell me that Tom Jones WROTE and sang the original version of 'Kiss.' 
The words poor and deluded sprung to mind. | |
