I don't have any links, but a couple weeks ago I heard a cover of Lionel Ritchie's "Easy" done by Faith No More...it was so horrible that I laughed my tuckus off

I was wondering if someone was gonna bring up Richard Cheese....

And they did.

I liked Whiskey in the Jar from Thin Lizzy, just their version of a centuries-old folk song.
Their lead singer just kills it.

And Danged if Metallica didn't UP and cover it with their signature vocal tics.

"As I was going over-ah, The Cork and Kerry MountaENZ-ah..

How about this:

Led Zep's Kashmir meets Rihanna's Man Down. Live recording by the Belgian rockers Triggerfinger.

I love me some Phil Lynott. (Emerald is still one of my favorite songs - especially the live version). No pretty video, but I found the sound on this version better and some good audience sing-a-long.

and if that isn't enough Whiskey in the Jar for you, here is U2 doing it with the only remarkable thing about it being the audience singing.

I used to listen to BOC do Born to be Wild before I even heard of Steppenwolf:
