This isn't cover versions, or reimaginings, or parodies, or sampling.

What tracks do you have where it's the same title/name, but something completely different from another artist?

Opening gambit, "Go", Pearl jam vs The Chemical Brothers.

Let's Spend the Night Together by the Rolling Stones and David Bowie springs to mind.

I had to laugh when I read the one about The Power of Love. I was in a hotel bar in Florida years ago when they have a karaoke night and a girl asked for that song so they played the Huey Lewis version and she was mortified because she wanted the Jennifer Rush one!

That’s just a cover, surely?

On a similar tack though:

Happy - The Rolling Stones
Happy - Pharrell Williams

Changes - Bowie (1971) and Changes - Black Sabbath (1972), I think Ozzy even changes the lyrics for version with Kelly.
