Thumbs up Punk covers - awesome or ruining good music?

Wondering how you guys feel about punk/ska covers... Personally, I feel if done right, they're awesome!

Some of the better ones according to Dan :

Face to Face - Sunnyside of the Street
Me First and the Gimmie Gimmies - One Tin Soldier (yeah yeah, it's a hippie song, blah blah blah)
Goldfinger - 99 Red Balloons
Millencolin - Every Breath You Take
Face to Face - Blister in the Sun (great song, just kinda bad quality)
Everclear - Brown Eyed Girl
random band - Pink Pather
random band - Walking on Sunshine
random band - I'll Stop the World

You guys have any favorite covers?

New Found Glory

You didn't even mention New Found Glory. They did a whole album of cover of movie theme songs. You haven't heard the Titanic theme song "My Heart Will Go On" until you've heard it with guitar riffs.

Hey now, if we're talking about punk ... why haven't The Ataris and Catch22 been mentioned? Punk rocks.

Dan, you know how I answered

MFATGG rocks, as does Catch 22, A New Found Glory, Pennywise . . .

They're all awesome.

I think I have every cover imaginable

...and thanks to you, Dan, I've grown very fond of One Tin Soldier.

My favorites?

Sloop John B. by Catch 22
One Tin Soldier by MFATGG
99 Red Balloons by Goldfinger
Rainbow Connection by MFATGG

Me First and the Gimmie Gimmes rawks.
And this cover of La Bamba that kicks...
Brandon, I saw that Pop Goes Punk, some of it sounded pretty goodto,but the Hot Topic price of $16 drove me away.
