Oh yeah, Triple J's Like A Version is incredible. I don't know what they've got in the water there but so many artists put out their best ever work with those covers. Here are some I like: - Someday (Julia Jacklin cover of The Strokes) - Love (CHVRCHES cover of Kendrick Lamar) - Feels Like We Only Go Backwards (Arctic Monkeys cover of Tame Impala) - Do I Wanna Know (CHVRCHES cover of Arctic Monkeys) - Believe (DMA's cover of Cher) And speaking of Australian childrens TV and Like A Version covers, the Wiggles covered Tame Impala's Elephant (bet you didn't expect that one!) |

Australian covers go back further in time, of course ...
The Wiggles famously covered AC/DC's It's a Long Way to the Shop (If You Wanna Sausage Roll)
and Rolf Harris infamously covered I Touch Myself originally by the Divinyls
These, and more, prompted by guest appearence's on Andrew Denton's Musical Challenge and collected on a couple of records (today on youtube etc.).
