Welcome to May. Let's start the new month with a new theme now that we're all caught up here. This theme? Cover songs that largely transformed the original song into something new. Instead of a reason why, I'll provide the original artist and a link to the original song so you can compare them.

Artist: Jorn
Song: Running Up That Hill
Year: 2016
Original Artist: Kate Bush

For the second edition of "cover songs that transformed the original song into something new", I give you a popular 90s industrial rock band! I'm not ashamed to admit that I heard this version before I heard the New Order version, but what young teenager would reasonably get his hands on a New Order record before hearing this on the radio in the late 90s?

Artist: Orgy
Song: Blue Monday
Year: 1998
Original Artist: New Order
