As we're also going for weird here,
The cover of "Head Like A Hole" that Devo recorded.
"Stayin' Alive" as performed by Ozzy Osbourne with Dweezil Zappa - complete with "I am disco man" sound clip.
"Dream Weaver", covered by Crowbar
Laibach's version of the theme from Jesus Christ Superstar
"They're Coming To Take Me Away", covered by Lard
"Da Ya Think I'm Sexy?" and "Physical", both covered by Revolting Cocks
"Borderline", performed by Nivek Ogre (under whatever moniker he actually used on the CD) for the Virgin Voices tribute album, which also featured KMFDM covering "Material Girl"
A couple which played it fairly close to the original:
Gene Simmons' version of "Firestarter"
Mandy Moore's rendition of "Senses Working Overtime"
Or just plain embarrassing:
A Teens did a cover of "School's Out" with Alice Cooper
And one case where the original version is the weird one, and the cover is more normal-sounding:
"Am I In Sync?" - originally performed by Steve Taylor, covered by Circle Of Dust
