Any act or song that is more novelty/obscure than professional/established shouldn’t be on a list like this. Madonna covering a genuine hit badly? Sure. Shatner covering a Beatles experiment in Shatner-speak? I don’t think so.

...And just to prove I can play along: here’s Hawkwind with their space-rock rendition of The Rolling Stones’ “Gimme Shelter.” (Give it 30 seconds to clear out the electronic atmospherics and launch into the song.)

Your appreciation/revulsion will be in some ratio as to how much you like (or hate) Hawkwind versus the ‘Stones!
