Heavy covers of songs that originally were not heavy at all.

Spooky Tooth - "I Am the Walrus."
Hell, they ain't even old-timey ! - Homer Stokes
You Keep Me Hangin' On, da Fudge
I'm surprised no one else has posted this next one yet:
The truth will set you free, but first it will piss you off
Circus (with Mel Collins), '69, Norwegian Wood
Randy Califoria 'Day Tripper'
Tempest (Ollie Halsall, Jon Hiseman) 'Paperback Writer'
The Move cover the Amen Corner pop hit 'Hello Suzie'
Dies Irae 'Silent Night'
Disturbed - Land of Confusion (Genesis)
"Normal is just the average of extremes" - Gary Lessor
That Sanctuary, I mean, Nevermore, remake is much more interesting than that obnoxious, cloying and labored version people are infatuated with now by Disturbed.
Wait, we should spend at least 17 posts distilling what "heavy" means, before pouncing headlong into such a nasty briar patch.
I can't wait
Heavy is what heavy is, anyone who needs to debate it will never get it or recognise it.
It would be like a jazz fan trying to explain the various types of jazz to me and what the attraction is for listeners and explaining why the musicians sometimes play out of tune and out of time and rarely follow sheet music and why solos are so long and why they drift so far from the main theme. I never got jazz and never will. But, each to his own.
The original Green Manalishi was heavy.
