Can we stretch it to unofficial remixes/edits? Here's a Breaks re-edit by a well known Breaks act. Free DL if you want it.

Also the piano playing on this kinda puts a li'l lump in my throat.

If remixes of cover-versions are ok, i'm with this one:

But as for the remix, I prefer the "original" cover by Shinchi Osawa. This is a heck of a cover version that really pays tribute to the original!

I know the guy who did this, I remixed one of his tracks when he was doing music as "Sundance". Really nice cover indeed
Would you mind sharing that one? Is it on your channel?

Yeah, I figured the lyrics were different as I thought I heard "chemical" in there. He did a great job.

This is like the "Sweded" version of Base 6 alla Michel Gondry's Be Kind Rewind. Love it!
I remember stumbling across this a few years ago. Not the best vocal, but I love the potential of turning a Chemical Brothers track into a folk song. 'Let Forever Be' has wholesome lyrics (though I'm not sure it's intended) and the rhythmic, repetitive, group-style hymn you would find in this style of music.

He loses mad points for not mounting a tambourine to his hi-hat for the larger than life tambourine hits in the original. It's the equivalent of skipping the drum fill while drumming along to 'In The Air Tonight'.
Man I miss drumming.

Just found the really nice Russian cover of MAH, yeah, the lyrics are in russian, which makes it even more interesting!
Yup, I posted that on page one :D
It's a great cover!
I don't have any video or audio evidence, but apparently Beck covered "Wide Open" in 2018 on his second date at Red Rocks [9/25/2018] for his 'Colors' tour. Was this ever brought up? I've searched on YouTube but I found no hits...
It was played between "Black Tambourine" and "The Golden Age" according to setlist.fm
