I got a bunch! :-)

Tori Amos - smells like teen spirit (orig. Nirvana)
John Wesley Harding - like a prayer (orig. Madonna)
Talking Heads - take me to the river (orig. Al Green)*
Aztec Camera - jump (orig. Van Halen)
Devo - satisfaction (orig. Rolling Stones)*
Beastie Boys - i'm down (orig. Beatles)

*Arguable, I admit.
