I like genre switchups. The more weirder the better.

Sid does Sinatra. His way.

Nanci Griffith's two "Other Voices" albums have some great covers. One of my favorites is Wall of Death.

Never heard this before. I've watched parts of the making of MI2 funnily enough. Tom Cruise is a maniac.

• Foo Fighters recorded two different cover versions of the song. The first was used as b-side for the "Learn to Fly" CD single,[22] while the second one, with Brian May on lead guitar, first appeared on the Mission: Impossible 2 soundtrack,[23] and later as an Amazon.com bonus track on their 2009 Greatest Hits album and in the 2011 limited-edition vinyl only release Medium Rare, released for Record Store Day.[24][25] Both versions were sung by drummer Taylor Hawkins.[26]
