How Soon Is Now... by tATu *shudders*
****in Spotify won't connect so I can't confirm, but Camera Obscura did a fantastic Abba cover on 6Music a few months back.
er... Hounds of Love by the Futureheads? Thing is, that's the version that I heard first, so whenever I hear the Kate Bush version I think it sounds dreadful...
