Please correct me if im wrong, will love to delete this thread to add my contributions to this interesting subject at any other existing thread. So, in the meantime and just in case, there i go...

Man, you're obsessed with things sounding like Pulp wink

 

There's probably a page on Pulpwiki with a list. I prefer when less obvious songs have been covered but I'm not sure there's many examples of that by "name" artists. I do really like

Divine Comedy's impromptu live version of Disco 2000

Franz Ferdinand - Misshapes and Sophie Ellis Bextor's DYRTFT renditions on BBC Radio 1's Live Lounge are half-decent but not things I'd return to that often.

In 2011 ahead of their first reunion, Mark W organised a Pulp covers competition on the official website, I think it was called Pulptube. Lots of existing Pulp covers from YouTube were collated. I think a version of Babies was chosen as the winning entry and I remember a silly Hungarian (?) guy being commended for tackling She's A Lady. And I think he said in his book that he really liked that This Is Hardcore live version with no piano but brilliant guitars by Los Vaqueros Paganos, a Buenos Aires band. 

 

In terms of studio recorded covers of Pulp by well-known artists, I can't really think of any. They're a difficult band to interpret - maybe because Jarvis' distinctive personality and vocal style is at the heart of most songs that he sings.

 

I'd like to hear Lana Del Rey have a go at something like A Little Soul or Seductive Barry. Maybe produced by Jack Antonoff...

Hi, Eamon! Thank you for your contributions!

And, yes, you are absolutely right: with experts like you and many others in this forum about absolutely everything about PULP, I'm afraid I can only dare to put the focus on collateral things surrounding them...hope its not considered too off-topic!

Can't agree more with  a Lana del Rey's version of "Seductive Barry"!
