Yes the are many in fact the pop band Steps' biggest hits were all remakes of older songs such as their track Tradegy which was a cover of the BeeGees original hence the criticism of them being a cover band. |
But that is not an exact copy. Is the same song, but with a different vibe and sang by different people. It takes some liberties, it's not a 1:1 copy. Otis Redding also did many covers of already existing songs, but you can say it's not the same work:
The song is essentally the same, but you can tell there is a different overall feeling, voice and tone. It's not a remastering, it's not a copy: is a different take on an already existing song.
