What's your favorite "obscure remake" from the 80s or early 90s?

Mine:
Spirit in the Sky - Doctor and the Medics
Where did our Love Go? - Soft Cell
Sypathy for the Devil - Laibach
and I guess Long Train Running - Book Of Love is OK

oh yeah, and
DM - Route 66

Duran Duran-Fame
Duran Duran-Whitelines(& every songs on ThankYou is a gem!)
Tears For Fears-Ashes to Ashes
aha-Crying In The Rain
Japan-I Second That Emotion
Frankie Goes To Hollywood-War
Naked Eyes-Always Something There To Remind Me

Got the Time by Joe Jackson, covered by Anthrax
I Think We're Alone Now by the Shondells, covered by Lene Lovich (not the one by Tiffany)

Borrowed Nostalgia for the Unremembered 80's

John I'm Only Dancing - Chameleons UK
Tomorrow Never Knows - Chamleons UK
Alone Again Or - The Damned
Tears of A Clown - The English Beat
A New England - Kirsty MacColl

I'm sure there's plenty more but I can't think right now...

I'll see your Chameleons UK and raise you Tomorrow Never Knows by Danielle Dax.
Also, The Banana Splits Theme by the Dickies (i was going to put Gigantor here but BST is better and more obscure)
