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

My favorite is in the opposite direction - Porter Robinson covering Fontaines DC "favorite" in a 90s pop rock style. Such a good version of such a good song, and it's worth reading the interview where he talks about recording it.
