Strange, Funny or Ridiculous Cover Songs

I noticed that many of the "bad cover" playlists missed a lot of terrible classics, like the Shatner songs.  Any thing missing from this one that I should add?

I rather enjoy Weedpecker’s cover of Black Sabbath’s “Sweet Leaf”; it’s heavier, slower, and more atmospheric than the original. You might enjoy it if you like stoner rock!

Here’s another; this time a heavy metal version of Pink Floyd’s “Astronomy Domine,” by Voivod:

Also, here’s a bluegrass version of Bob Marley’s “Small Axe.” I actually enjoy it more than the original!

Here’s Phish’s version of the theme from 2001: A Space Odyssey, also known as Richard Strauss’s “Thus Sprach Zarathustra.” They usually jam a lot on this song:

I also enjoy Earth’s version of Jimi Hendrix’s “Peace in Mississippi”:
