Apparently there is a version of SBL out there sung by Jan Teigen - a Norwegian famous for scoring nul punts in Eurovision 1978! Sadly (?) I cant find it.....

18 months later & Ive found it at last :-rofl2 :-lmao






And whilst Im assaulting your eardrums with Sugar Baby Love lets have a Czech version by Karel Gott







A German version :-rofl2





And lastly (for now anyway) a French version :-lmao





Oh by the way if 3 minutes of SBL isnt enough for you - how about a 6 minute 12" mix by Paul Da Vinci? (The original falsetto vocalist!)

A cover of the Stones 'Paint it Black' by Israeli Berry Sakharof and the Red Band

 
Crazy by the Ninette Rose Band

 
Pink Floyd originally did The Great Gig In The Sky. Rick Wakeman has done quite a creditable cover.

 
Not many Dire Straits covers in the thread so far - but here is a thrash/death sort of metal version of Sultans of Swing :D

 
Way back in the dim & distant mists of time when I started this thread (aka November 2011 :D ) we had German rock band Avantasia doing Dancing With Tears In My Eyes. Now Ive found them doing Lay All Your Love On Me
