The Scissor Sisters' version of "Comfortably Numb"
Like listening to the cries for help as a dear friend is dragged out into the car park behind the pub and has the living crap kicked out of him....

Re: Better Cover Versions
Just been listening to The Alarm and their cover of Neil Young's "Keep On Rockin In The Free World". thats a great cover.
Echo And The Bunnymen - People Are Strange (Originally by The Doors)
Nine Inch Nails - Dead Souls (Originally by Joy Dvision)
New Order - Ceremony (Originally done by Joy Division but theres no studio recording of it and Sumners voice suits it better to Ian's live voice)
The Sundays - Wild Horses (The Rolling Stones)
The Go! Team - Bull In The Heather (Sonic Youth)
Teenage Fanclub - Take The Skinheads Bowling (Casper Van something)
I think all these are just as good or done differently to make them sound unique and their own.
