Looking for some covers of popular songs especially anything from the 80s or 90s that's been redone today into a hard rock or metal version. Bonus if it's a female vocalist

But I'm open to anything if the covers good or better than the original

Motörhead - Heroes

Original by David Bowie 1977.

motörhead recorded the cover version while recording their last album in 2015.

Generally I would say I like the music of Bowie better than motörhead, but in this case, their cover of his song is better than the original.

Apocalyptica also did an amazing cover, in German, with Till Lindeman of Rammstein on vocals
