hrm.... what about'.......
i like big butts - sir mix a lot (dave rodgers) with a mix of i wanna be fat.....
or
real slim shady - eminem (franz 'white trailer trash tornado feat. hepititis c corner girlz)

Pat Benatar - We Belong(unless already done as Eurobeat, there was a cool trancy techno version by Re4mation, featured on Dancemania X7)
React - Let's Go All The Way(one-hit wonder from late 90's)(Niko)
Just noticed this, several parts of the tune of Elisa - Music In The Night, especially the b-melo, bear a resemblence to Rihanna - Unfaithful(the intro of Kimmy - My Oh My also sounds similar). But which was produced first?

Stevie B. - I Wanna Be The One
or the similarly named Expose - Let Me Be The One(don't know how well it would sound speed up)
Shania Twain - That Don't Impress Me Much
Duran Duran - The Reflex(Niko or Daniel)
Baby D. - Let Me Be Your Fantasy(Pamsy)
Marky Mark & The Funky Bunch - Good Vibrations(Fastway rapping, Melissa White or Irene on chorus?)
Lou Bega - Mambo No. 5(although it would be hard to find a good vocalist)
haddaway - rock my heart(his only hit besides what is love)(Rick Castle)
duran duran-electric barbarella(Joe Banana)
DaBuzz - Let Me Love You(SCP, trancy style)

sorry for the bumpage
Alanis Morisette - You Oughta Know
Republica - Ready To Go(Delta Queens)
Robert Palmer - Addicted To Love(Dave & Kiko Loureiro)
Information Society - Pure Energy/What's On Your Mind
Information Society - Running
Sunrise Avenue - Fairytale Gone Bad(darn it, they're always doing dance remakes with the Cascada sound nowdays)
Deniece Williams - Let's Hear It For The Boy(Domino)

I tried to choose some that would have a roughly suitable tempo, because speeding the song up too much generally ruins it. Also tried to avoid those already mentioned in this discussion and the more obscure ones (so nothing Korean this time, sorry )

• ABBA - Angel Eyes (Pamsy)
  Aqua - Barbie Girl (Lolita)
  Bonnie Tyler - Holding Out for a Hero (Matt Land)
  Cher - Believe (Mari-San)
  H & Claire - All Out of Love (Dave & Meri)
  Irene Cara - Fame (Delta Queens)
  SMiLE.dk - Future Girls (Go Go Girls)
  Roxette - Milk and Toast and Honey (Rose)
  Steps - Last Thing on My Mind (Denise)
  Whitney Houston - I Will Always Love You (Helena)

HOlding OUt For A Hero sorta already have a cover albeit in japanese though

I had always pictured Dave Rodgers doing a cover of 'Holding Out for a Hero' for some reason.

Matteo would be good too, though I'm not picky.

Don't you think It would be better suited to change it to "Holding Out For a Heroine", since they are guys?

I hope I spelled it right? I meant to write Female hero and not the drug

By whom? I'd like to hear that.

I only know the Korean one - which is brilliant, by the way. It's called "One" and performed by Kim Jong Kook [김종국]. It also contains a reference to "Fame".

Not really.

A-ha - The Living Daylights, or The Sun Always Shines on TV
My Mine - Hypnotic Tango(or better yet, Bananarama - Look On The Floor)
Rozalla - Everybody's Free
Ace Of Base - Beautiful Life
Mylene Farmer - Desenchantee(tough one, not many Eurobeat artists know French)
Nik Kershaw - Wouldn't It Be Good

The Japanese cover was by Akemi for Fantasy Records. It was pretty good despite the fact I despise most japanese vocals.

QED - Islands(Daniel & Cherry? Ace & Pamsy? Kasanova & Dhany?)
Cutting Crew - Died In Your Arms(Ace)
Van Halen - You Really Got Me(Go2)(a bit of a stretch)
forget the nu-italo, it's too awkward
Petula Clark - Downtown(although as I mentioned in the similarities thread, Fancy - Ciao Ciao Ciao kind of sounds like it)

bump: Pete Shelley - Homo Sapien(Garcon)
Pete Shelley - Telephone Operator(a bit harder to pull off)
Rozalla - Are You Ready To Fly
Simple Minds - Don't You Forget About Me(or does Sophie - Don't you Forget About My Love sound like this?)
ZZ Top, particularly Sharp Dressed Men
Bette Midler - To Deserve You(liked the Deja Vu & Tasmin version too)

I would like to see one of the labels pull off Q-Feel- Dancing In Heaven. I'm thinking Matteo Rizzi can spruce up those Keyboards of the original and can up with a killer chord progression...and of course Marco for vocals

Thanks! I'll try to hear it somewhere.

Ricky Martin - She Bangs(Paul Harris)
Animotion - Obsession(Christine)
Enrique Iglesias - Be With You(Ace has a similar-sounding voice, although he doesn't usually do slower/romantic/trancy songs, that would be more of a job for Jay Lehr)
Mandy Smith - I Just Can't Wait(another SAW artist)
Judas Priest - You Got Another Thing Comin'(Ace Warrior)
Kylie Minogue - On A Night Like This
Dyce - Fairytale; in case you didn't know they're a Swedish eurodancepop group, voiced by Sofia Lovgrin, who originally was with a band called Domino(not to be confused with the Eurobeat singer). Not sure how popular they are in Asia, or if their music has even set foot there, in fact they are kind of a one-hit wonder(Tomorrow Can Wait Cascada Remix)
Madonna - What it feels like for a girl(trancebeat style, maybe Pamsy)
Bananarama - Really Saying Something(Kiki & Fancy or other girl group)
Mary Jay Blige - Be Without You(Mari-san or Stella/Momo)
Leann Rimes - How Do I Live(Sandy)
