Seu Jorge-Life on Mars. Seu covers David Bowie's classic in Portuguese, and gives it a whole new life. I'm a Bowie fan, and especially a 1970's Bowie fan. This cover is on a mixed CD a friend made me in college, and I bought the whole album on iTunes shortly after.
Bowie has this to say: "Had Seu Jorge not recorded my songs acoustically in Portuguese I would never had heard this new level of beauty which he has imbued them with." And what's good enough for The Duke is good enough for me.
