Gnarls Barkley's "Crazy" Probably The Most Covered Song EVER

So undoubtedly you've all heard "Crazy" by Gnarls Barkley. It was everywhere this summer: the radio, TV, concerts, some other places. But what you probably haven't heard are all of the obscenely large number of covers that various musicians (both professional and amateur) have recorded. And there are a lot. I know I've been playing it on my guitar for a while now, and I'd heard Nelly Furtado's awful, awful verson, but I could never have imagined quite how many different versions there are. Luckily (or unluckily), the people over at Slate compiled a linked list to help solve this problem. So go forth and be shocked and entertained.

Personally, I think the Raconteurs one is actually really cool and have been surprised by the quality of all the home recordings. Billy Idol's rendition, on the other hand, should probably be used as a form of torture.

This actually reminds me of another link I found recently, namely this guy playing an acoustic version of Hey Ya!, which I also used to cover back in the day. I don't know what kind of wacky ass band Obidiah Parker is, but I'll humbly admit that they take my acoustic version to school, even if the somber feeling kind of falls apart at the end. Also, splicing it together with the actual music video footage = priceless.
