Modern Covers of Classics


I'm putting together a playlist of covers just because I'm a little bored of my current playlists. There are plenty of threads on this but I'm looking for more modern covers. Some examples I already have are:

Dancing in the Dark - Biz Colletti

Don't come around here no more - Rhianna Giddens

You Can't always get what you want  - Lainey Wilson

Cindy I'll marry you some day - Robert Plant

Paint it Black - Wednesday Addams ( I know, weird, but compelling for some reason

Any suggestions?

Okay, not exactly new covers, but, interesting covers anyway:

Klaus Nomi: Just One Look

Nouvelle Vague: Guns of Brixton

Shonen Knife:  Top of the World

Here are a couple very different versions of “Sound of Silence” — both interesting and compelling I think…

And here’s a Polish female chorus doing Metallica’s “Nothing Else Matters” that I think even further uncovers the song’s inner beauty…

All of these are available on Qobuz BTW.
