Trying to make a nice mix for my vacation. I want to build a tune list that is chill/beach/surfer with Reggae/Ska covers of popular songs as the base. I can fill it out with originals later (i.e. Marley, Sublime, Sugar Ray, etc.)
So far I've got...
"Love Song", original by The Cure, covered by 311
"Johnny B Good", original by Chuck Berry, covered by Peter Tosh
"Billie Jean", by Michael Jackson, covered by Shinehead
"Stand by Me", original by Ben E. King, cover by Playing for Change
"Gimme Shelter", original by The Rolling Stones, covered by Playing for Change
"All my Loving", original by the Beatles, covered by Prince Buster
What ya got?

Thanks! And I just found Little Roy covering a couple of Nirvana songs. And some covers of Pink Floyd.

311 also covered Dyer Maker by Led Zeppelin and (White Man) in Hammersmith Palais by the Clash.
It's not reggae but Lionel Richie and Jimmy Buffet just released a new version of All Night Long.

Just buy Dread Zeppelin's 5000000. Some of the most entertaining covers you'll find.

Hotel California by Reel Big Fish would be a must. Most will love that song since it spans a few genres.
Swan Lake (Tchaikovsky) by Madness

Reel Big Fish did a covor of "Take On Me" that's pretty awesome. I want to see a ska cover of Brown-eyed Girl, personally.
Some friends of mine in high school had a ska band that did a pretty sick cover of "The Kids Arn't Alright" by The Offspring.
