"When You Sleep": Memoryhouse (My Bloody Valentine Cover)
Gorgeous piano cover of MBV.
Nadja basically takes the cure and drowns it in distortion and fuzz. Interestingly enough, it works.
"He's A Whore": Big Black (Cheap Trick Cover)
This song just rules. Also notable is Big Black's cover of "The Model" by Kraftwerk.
"When Your Lonely Heart Breaks": Puerto Rico Flowers (Neil Young Cover)
Is it redundant if I constantly post PRF and say how awesome it is? Yeah it's redundant but I don't care.
"Just Like Heaven": The Watson Twins (The Cure Cover)
"Heartbeats": Jose Gonzales (The Knife Cover)
In Gonzales' hands, a former Swedish synthpop ditty becomes the most heartbreaking song in the world.
"Landslide": The Smashing Pumpkins (Fleetwood Mac Cover)
"Where Did You Sleep Last Night": Nirvana (Leadbelly Cover)
I don't like Nirvana (pshhhhhhh, whatever), but I do love Leadbelly, and the whole grunge vibe just works really well with the traditional blues style.

"Under Pressure": Xiu Xiu (David Bowie Cover)
Xiu Xiu manages to make the most strangely beautiful Bowie cover.
