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?

Birelli Lagrene and Sylvain Luc's instrumental cover of Cyndi Lauper's Time after Time is worth a listen - outstanding guitar recording as well.

OP here. Wow, I'm floored by all the suggestions. Who knew there were so many covers and bands I've never heard of. Some cover songs are even scary. Thanks!
