Some of the songs that people know so well and think of as being performed by only one artist were actually released by other artists before them. For example, when Panic! At The Disco remade "Bohemian Rhapsody," few people didn't know the original artist was Queen, but here are some songs that you may not know are actually covers:
1."Tainted Love" by Soft Cell (1981). Original released in 1964 by Gloria Jones.
