The Offspring did Dirty Magic over 20 years apart.

Granddaddy / Jason Lytle re-recorded Sophtware Slump on solo piano
I think it’s fun, brings a new view to some songs. But doesn’t touch the original.

What about Take On Me, pretty sure that was a new version and not a remix

That was a worthwhile effort by Danzig. No one still knows the difference

These guys have a few I think. On this song I prefer the first version.

Speaking of Danzig, all the Misfits songs that he redid for the Collection albums probably would count too.

I have the solo piano LP and it sounds great. I'd have to listen to them back to back to see if there are any songs I like better on piano.

I can’t think of any specific examples at the moment, but there have been songs I’ve found on Spotify that have been re-recorded — years later — by either the full band or the lead singer bc Spotify didn’t have streaming rights to the originals

Jason Molina also did this often. There are 2 versions of Hammer Down, one with a full band and one solo acoustic. I think I like the full band one more.

Not song related, but I loved how Phil Collins recreated his album covers for their reissues
