I wonder how many 80s songs have been re-made since. Let's see:
Fear Factory - 'Cars' which they sang with (Gary Numan) himself.
Orgy - Blue Monday
Look of Love - can't remember who sang the recent version.(ABC)
Foo Fighters - Down in the Park (Gary Numan)
OH NO! I can't believe I just forgot all the other songs I had in mind. My mind just went blank. I hate that!>: Don't you hate it when you get distracted form something and then forget what you were about to say or do? Aargh! Well, this was an idea of the songs I mean anyway. What else was there?.....

How about "I'll House You" by the Jungle Brothers. I'm not sure who did the remake, but Skyklad wasn't very happy about it when she heard it! She has a message posted in the House Music section...

I think it sounds good, but I'm an Ozzy fan, so I like all his music :)
