What's your favorite remake of a song

801 Live (Eno, Manzanera w/ an amazing bass player whose name I am not recalling) did a cover/massive re-do of the Beatle's Tomorow Never Knows, listed as TKN. Runs about six minutes, and burns, baby, burns!

Let's not forget the covers of "Stairway to Heaven." I like the Dolly Parton version.

Even better is the curious "hybrid" version that takes the lyrics from the opening to Gilligan's Island and sets them to Stairway. It's called "Stairway to Gilligan's Island."

I also like the various Porky Pig covers of songs, done by various comedians such as Robin Williams. Springsteen's "Fire" is amusing, as is "Slow Hand" (I'm dwiving in my car. I turn on the wadio. . .").

When I first saw this post I was clueless (probably still the case in a larger context) but the other day on XM Fred I heard Devo's version of The 'Stone's "(I Can't Get No) Satisfaction"...what a great cover! At the moment, "my favorite remake of a song".

Michael Hedges' remake of JimI Hendrix "All along the watchtower" is pretty good for a lighter version of a clssic but I am not even sure if Hendrix was the first.

Was Dylan first?
