In addition to Circle Jerks' "Golden.." is their recording of "Put A Little Love In Your Heart."
Flying Lizards also hit the UK chart with Eddie Cochrane's "Summertime Blues."

Can't remember who did this, but "covered" the Bangle's with "walk with an erection" I'm sure some of the gurus here know. Help.

Olivia Newton John's "Have you never been mellow" -FEEDERZ.
A very funny hardcore punk version.

Oops, nearly forgot Wall of Voodoo's cover of "Ring of Fire". I think that meets the criteria for a bizarre remake.

The Meatmen covering the Smiths' How Soon Is Now? Fucking bizarre. I have a bunch of bands covering the Smiths from Sinead O'Connor to Everclear if anyone's interested. Weird, interesting, funny, bizarre.....

Speaking of Devo remakes, they recently did a remake of NIN "Head Like a Hole" that is strange, but fun at the same time.
