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?

 Chantal Chamberland does a whole set of covers; my favorites include Chasing Cars and Miss Sarajevo.

Leonid, band from Russia does wonderful covers of Chicago, Carpenter, various 70’s soul and funk bands.

Superb musicianship but be advised that what they offer are note-perfect duplications, as opposed to "reinterpretations" or "re-visions". 

Personally, I never much cared for Chicago. Do I like Leonid? You bet I do!

Well I like hearing Beatles songs done by others artists. I also like rock songs played with just instruments.
