Bound to be divisive, but I really like this cover, even thought it's the second version of the band which I really wasn't keen on. The original is pretty impossible to beat, but they gave it a good go here, especially since the idea of the album was to get everything done in a very short space of time, so it was recorded in a rush.

Robert Wyatt - Shipbuilding (1982)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UjUkjpJa6bY

Suede - Shipbuilding (1995 - recorded for the Warchild 'Help' album)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KDPa6AJMQkw
