E.g. From the Cover Songs by Opposing Gender thread...

Futureheads - Hounds of Love (Kate Bush)
Kate Bush - Rocket Man (Elton John)
Elton John - Young, Gifted and Black (Nina Simone)

Should be easier without the gender restriction.

Elton John covered Young Gifted, and Black??!!

There's this little site, called the Covers Project...

It's being worked upon, but there used to be a "longest chain" generator. Johnny Cash was the key to making long chains, since he's had a long career and also covered new songs.

The real challenge is: can you do a cover-chain C90 where the last band on side two has covered the first band on side one, thus forming a circle. I think Norman Records invented one a couple of years back.
