Roger Daltrey covering Don't Let the Sun Go Down on Me was nice. Lost Boys Soundtrack. Kinda dated now,but cool. Same with the Who covering Saturday Night's Alright For Fighting/Take Me to the Pilot from the 30 years box set. May want to give it a whirl.

IMHO Spiderbait's Black Betty is better than RamJam's

Under My Thumb - Streetheart
Personally, I prefer it over the Stones version, but it's a near thing.

I've noticed a pattern - this, Roger Daltry's Don't Let the Sun Go Down on Me (dated?? aw, man…

, and a few of my own including Down With the Sickness by Richard Cheese and Viva Las Vegas by the Dead Kennedys - seems like covers used in movies are generally really good. I'm trying to think of a cover used in a movie that just absolutely sucked but nothing springs to mind (but it's also half-eight and I'm not properly coffeed yet).

Anyone?

Well, there's the soundtrack to Sky High, where the whole soundtrack is covers of 80's songs. Some are good, some are OK, some are crap. I don't think any of them rival the originals, though.
