There are a shocking number of covers for great songs. Some of them are even better than the original, IMO. Like this one:
Stressed Out (Twenty One Pilots Cover) | Maddie Wilson

Personally,
Remixes are more on my radar than covers, official or otherwise.
Mirror Mirror | Jeff Williams | Hingamo Remix

Darth & Vader - Return Of The Jedi | Interactive Noise Remix
