For me, there's a few, but I especially enjoy Cake's rendition of Gloria Gaynor's I Will Survive

One of my all-time favorite cover songs is "Deacon Blues" by The Darcys: www.youtube.com/watch?v=DCSBG-…

While there are countless cover songs of millions of songs, this one sticks out in my mind because:

1. No one. Ever. Covers Steely Dan. Ever. Why? Because if you're even vaguely familiar with Steely Dan, they are nearly religious in their zeal to perfect the engineering of their music in the studio. While utilizing the talents of world-renowned session artists. Therefore, in my 40 years on this planet, I can count only ONE group who has covered them successfully.

2. I'm a huge fan of the Dan, and The Darcys did a very respectable job of covering some of the most difficult jazz/rock music ever written. So.
