21 Hit Songs You Never Knew Were Actually Covers
Many people prefer certain song covers to the original, which is perfectly fine. On the other hand, there are songs that people are clueless about, even if they are song covers in the first place! Which means I can now rock out to two versions of these classics! Here are 21 songs you didn't know were actually covers: "1985" by Bowling for Soup is a cover of the song by American pop-punk band SR-71, which was released just two months earlier in Japan before the manager believed it was a better fit for Bowling for Soup. Although probably more well-known, the emotional song "Hurt" by Johnny Cash is a cover of the song performed by the rock band Nine Inch Nails. "Respect" by Aretha Franklin is a cover of Otis Redding's 1965 song by the same name. Franklin really flipped the lyrics on their head to create an all-time classic. "Renegades of Funk" by Rage Against the Machine is a cover of the Afrika Bambaataa & The Soul Sonic Force song of the same name. The song "It's My Life" by No Doubt is a cover of the English band Talk Talk's original release in 1984. The iconic "I Will Always Love You" by Whitney Houston is a cover of the 1974 song by Dolly Parton, which was featured on her famous album "Jolene." An absolute shocker to my '90s brain, but the 1997 hit song "Torn" by Australian singer Natalie Imbruglia is actually a cover originally sung by American rock band Ednaswap, which was released in 1995. The popular song "Don't Cha" by The Pussycat Dolls is a cover of the original song by Tori Alamaze. The popular '80s hit "Tainted Love" by Soft Cell is a cover of Gloria Jones's "Tainted Love," released in 1964. The song "Superman" by R.E.M. is a cover of "Superman" by The Clique. A B-Side track on the album "White Tornado," it's an R.E.M. gem. The mega summer hit from 1999 "Mambo No. 5" by Lou Bega is a sample of the original version by Cuban musician Dámaso Pérez Prado from 1950. The 1992 song "Achy Breaky Heart" by Billy Ray Cyrus is a cover of "Don't Tell My Heart," which was first recorded in 1991 by The Marcy Brothers. The song "If I Were A Boy" by Beyoncé was performed initially by BC Jean in 2008. The song "Black Magic Woman" by Santana is a cover of the song by Fleetwood Mac. Mind blown. In my defense, the Santana version has more views on YouTube than any other version by Fleetwood Mac. "Blinded by the Light" by Manfred Mann's Earth Band might be the more popular version, but it was originally written and recorded by Bruce Springsteen. The popular Joan Jett & the Blackhearts song "I Love Rock 'n Roll" is a cover of the British glam band Arrow's song "I Love Rock 'n 'Roll." "Dancing in the Moonlight" by the English band Toploader is a cover of the song originally recorded by Sherman Kelly's band, Boffalongo, which first released it in 1970. Then, Kelly rereleased the song with his new band, King Harvest, in 1972. So, technically, Kelly covered his own song. "Black Betty" by Ram Jam is a cover of a song credited to songwriter Huddie Ledbetter. The oldest recorded version was performed by James "Iron Head" Baker and a group of Texas prisoners in the 1930s. "Take Me to the River" by American rock band Talking Heads is a cover of the 1974 soul song by Al Green. The 1995 hit "Gangster's Paradise" by Coolio (ft. L.V.) is actually a cover of Stevie Wonder's "Pastime Paradise" from 1976. Lastly, and mainly for the youngins, Post Malone's cover of the alternative rock song "Only Wanna Be With You," originally released by Hootie & the Blowfish, is now a pop song featured in the Pokémon 25 soundtrack, which has 18M views on YouTube. Is there a song you were stunned to learn was a cover? Comment below (the song and artists)!

Jennifer Love Hewitt on 'A Killer Among Friends' doc: 'I'm very intrigued by trauma'
From fictional scream queen to true crime. Jennifer Love Hewitt has become one of the iconic 'final girls' in horror movies, thanks to her role in the 'I Know What You Did Last Summer' franchise. And now, she's sharing the stories of true murders. Hewitt, 46, narrates and executive produces the true crime ID docuseries 'A Killer Among Friends,' airing Mondays (10 p.m. on ID and streaming on HBO Max). 'I was shocked at how many people in my life are obsessed with true crime – and I didn't know it until I said that I was going to be doing the show. And they're like, 'We can't wait to watch it!' I'm not a true crime buff, per se…I was really interested in this show, more because of the human condition of it all,' Hewitt exclusively told The Post. 8 Jennifer Love Hewitt at the 'I Know What You Did Last Summer,' premiere in LA on July 14, 2025.

ID Each episode of 'A Killer Among Friends' follows a murder case where the culprit turns out to be someone who knew the victim. '[It's] not something that I've done before, so I was excited for that,' the 'Party of Five' actress said of narrating. 'I feel like that's what we're supposed to do in life: constantly challenge ourselves to do new things.' She 'wasn't sure about' joining the project initially, however. 'I'm used to relying on my face for all the emotions, and bringing those out in that one specific way,' Hewitt explained to The Post. 'So to challenge myself to pay homage to the people lost in these stories and their families and friends who are still here…. I wanted to sound graceful, and to not be in the way of this story. But, to just be the vehicle for the story with my voice.' 8 The ID series 'A Killer Among Friends.' 8 A photo from the trailer of 'A Killer Among Friends.' ID 8 Jennifer Love Hewitt in '9-1-1-.' Disney via Getty Images Hewitt, who was labeled 'a sex symbol' when she was still a teenager in the 1990s, has since spoken about how watching documentaries about Britney Spears in recent years helped her process her complicated feelings about that. 'I think for me to realize later in life that maybe some of the things that were talked about in and around me or directly to me as a young female weren't as they should have been,' she said. In an infamous 1996 interview on 'The Tonight Show' when she was 16, Jay Leno asked about her love life and age. 'I don't hold the people asking those questions responsible – it was more that was the thing that was allowed at that time,' she explained. 'Grown men were allowed to ask young girls questions that now, if we looked at that, we would not allow. We were just sort of a part of that time.' She added, 'I do think that these documentaries in general and documentary series really allow people to see things and look at things differently than maybe they do in a magazine article.' 8 Jennifer Love Hewitt at the '9-1-1' ABC premiere event on March 11, 2024.

'I'm very intrigued by trauma, and… how people continue to move through that and find a life after it,' she said. 'So in this series, I'm interested in these young people and how they've gone on to live lives, even though they've been through these traumatic experiences.' Recently, Hewitt also reprised her role as the traumatized Julie James in the latest 'I Know What You Did Last Summer' reboot, which is currently in theaters. The horror flick's end-credits scene suggested a third movie in the franchise could happen. 'Oh my gosh, I have no idea. I mean, truthfully, I was just excited to be asked back for this one. So I don't want to be too greedy,' Hewitt told The Post. 'But as long as there's a really interesting, fun story to tell, and as long the people still care about the characters, I'm always happy to hopefully find my way back there.'
