The obvious one to pick would be All The Young Dudes - Mott The Hoople or Man Who Sold the World - Lulu /Nirvana.

I'm going a bit leftfield with this one though.
BEF Featuring Billy McKenzie (another sadly missed) - Secret Life of Arabia

The Lulu version of that song ruined all the versions for me. I can't hear it without hearing her voice screeching it like a drunk woman at the bingo.

The Oasis version of 'Heroes'. Just a straight forward cover but it got me into Bowie.

I enjoyed Marilyn Manson's cover of Golden Years.

Mott the Hoople did not "cover" All the Young Dudes... Bowie wrote it for them.

Who can forget Peter Noone's (Herman and the Hermits) cover of "Oh you Pretty Things"

 



Glad

I can't view YouTube links. Are any of the ones you posted Bauhaus by any chance?

No, I'd forgotten about that one.

That Canadian astronaut covering Space Oddity was pretty special but only if you watch the video with it.

 


It's 106 miles to Chicago, we got a full tank of gas, half a pack of cigarettes, it's dark... and we're wearing sunglasses.
