For some reason I loved this odd and short cover of Rush's Xanadu.

Maybe these aren't very different, they're actually both quite faithful to the originals. Oh well, listen them anyway.
Coroner - I Want You (She's So Heavy)
Heathen - Death on Two Legs
And obviously
Devin Townsend - New York, New York

Passion Pit does some pretty interesting covers with their whole electro-rock sound.  I wouldn't say they are wildly different, but they definitely cover them in Passion Pit style.  Check these out if you dig the originals:

Dreams by The Cranberries

Tonight, Tonight by The Smashing Pumpkins

I'm probably going to be slain for this, but I love that live cover The Darkness did of Radiohead's 'Street Spirit'.
Unfortunately, I can't find the awesome version from that bootleg DVD I have, but this one is alright: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b_cpK0qm6TE

I don't mind growls, I'm just not a fan of the sound of their growls. They sound a little weird to me.
