It's the covers that gave songs a new life. Tainted Love went electro, Mad World went from frantic synth to a ballad, and Jolene had a new spin with the White Stripes.

The Fugees were at the top of the charts with their spin on Killing Me Softly, so tonight, we want to know who else took a song and gave it a new life. Tainted Love went electro, Mad World went from frantic synth to a ballad and, Jolene was never the same after an encounter with The White Stripes.
