[PinkFinal]

I always thought this was a 60s song but the original was done only two years before Blondie did it

 

[PinkFinal]

A Kinks song. Also covered by Cher I think.

Van Halen covered it in 79, wasn't a hit, probably not even a single.

Hush by Deep Purple was a cover.

....and covered again later by Kula Shaker?

....and covered again later by Kula Shaker?

Originally by Bille Joe Royal, covered by Deep Purple in a different arrangement, then Kula Shaker covered it based on Deep Purple's arrangements.

Kula Shaker got to No.2 with their version, so the most successful.

Torn by Natalie Imbruglia is another one.
