There are many songs that just can't be covered

Buzzcocks - Ever Fallen in Love is another I think just can't be topped despite being so simple.

You should make a post about it.

I liked the finale of Pitch Perfect. Not sure that really counts as a cover though.

Perhaps you already know this but while the simple minds version isn't a cover, they didn't write it.

It was written for them by a composer and a producer pair.

I didn't know this, but a lot of hit songs happen like that.
