The Tom Middleton Compil that //\/\/ was talking about here has the most hilarious version of I Will Survive on it.

they're a good start, thanks!
i've got the Tom Middleton comp, dug it out of the racks today, and it's kind of got me inspired!

oh, there's also a Japanese version of New Order's "Krafty"

and a HORRIBLE version of Moby's "Slipping Away" (Crier La Vie)
...well - I guess it's all a matter of taste, I mean - to me, it's a cheesy overly 'dancy' version of the track

although not really a 'cover' per se... the TERIYAKI BOYZ have a track called "Heart Breaker" which was produced by Daft Punk & it's essentially "Human After All" with Japanese hip hop over it

Ahhh yes I've heard that. I'm a big fan of the guys that make up most of the Teriyaki's, the J-rap group Rip Slyme. And now they're saying that they've collaborated with Daft Punk, Ad Rock, Cornelius, and a dozen other producers? I really expected the album to be a little better didn't you? (although the Cornelius track was really good)

Actually I remember hearing most of it was just jibberish. I can pick out a few lyrics "Did anybody see the snowman...?" "You just can't get back the bone"..????? but I think he's just making it up as he goes along. Listen to "Peking O".......
