Line 218:
* Jagpanzer's power metal cover of Gordon Lightfoot's "[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ELf3vePl-vo The Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald]".
* ''[[Ace Combat]]'' uses the Agnus Dei as BGM in the final mission of its fourth game, ''Shattered Skies'', but the "Megalith" mix is different enough that you have to strain your ears to recognise it. "Zero" from ''Belkan War'' also reused the lyrics from the eponymous song of ''Unsung War'', but given that the former re-rendered the latter with Hispanic guitar and castanets, it's a bit hard to tell.
* The Boss Hoss. Famous for country and western covers of various songs, among them [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KYuQWO3NsFI Cameo's "Word Up"], Eminem's "Without Me", Outkast's "Hey Ya" and [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sdFyn8u85sQ&feature=related The Cardigans' "My Favorite Game"].
* Beatles tribute band the Fab Four have issued a couple of Christmas albums, in which they perform popular carols in a Beatlesque manner.
** Sweden's Rubber Band also did the "Christmas a la Beatles" thing with their 1996 release ''Christmas! The Beatmas''.
Line 269:
* Friday the way [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vmbtua21uzM MeatLoaf] or [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9FISHEO3gsM&feature=related Bob Dylan] might have done it.
* [[YouTube]] user [http://www.youtube.com/user/CakeJarey#g/c/E514D154C42AFFC0 CakeJarey] played this trope with ''[[Final Fantasy]]'' songs... ''in the style of other Final Fantasy games''. Now, given the series' [[Final Fantasy/Awesome Music|usual pattern]], what could the result be? ''Still awesome.''
* Clara Moroni, better known for Eurobeat, recently{{when}} did a metal cover of A-ha's "Take on Me".
* Dudley Moore did "Little Miss Muffet" as Benjamin Britten would have composed it for Peter Pears to sing, and, on ''[[Not Only... But Also]]'', Tom Jones songs in a classical style.
* ''[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MJEtRtlmidk Rap Is A Man's Soul]'', better known as "That rap from ''[[Gurren Lagann]]'' that goes 'Row Row Fight the Pow-wah!'" gets a couple of versions throughout the series. There exists a [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tbNmi9qpMAM&feature=related heavy fanfare version], a [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7GeQK0fOAew sadder, somewhat contemplative version], and perhaps most memorably, an [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oAlztMvvNkk epic opera version] whereupon [[Ominous Latin Chanting|Dies Irae]] is sung as a [[One-Woman Wail]].
