I just got a compilation called Who Covers Who with the following:
	Hyperhead, "I Can See For Miles"
	Ian mcLagen & the Bump Band, "Pictures of Lily"
	The Revs, "The Kids are Alright"
	Buck Pets, "Bargain"
	Mint 400, "Boris the spider"
	Telescopes, "The Good's Gone"
	Swervedriver, "In the City"
	Alex Chilton, "Anyway, Anyhow, Anywhere"
	Blur, "Substitute"
	The Hinnies, "Baba O'Riley"
	The Mess, "Glowgirl"
	Brilliant Corners, "The Good's Gone"
Most of these are pretty close to the original, I think, though
the Hinnies version of Baba is clearly not a cover. (The synthesizer
part is axed, and the song is barely recognizable.)
