Best cover of a Smiths song

By and large covers of Smith's songs make me want to weep. These are the ones that I find most bearable but they still aren't as good as the originals, obviously.

I've heard the Dream Academy version of Please, please, please.. but only as an instrumental.
Its an amazingly beautiful piece of music and sounds far, far better without the nancy boy singing over the top.

The instrumental version was actually featured in Ferris Bueller's Day Off !

I love that cover of Ceremony. Such a great track, it's a shame there's no proper Joy Division recording of it.
