It turns out Finnish people especially really love the Rolling Stones.
Some of my favorites:

Azucar Moreno's melodramatic Spanish disco version of Paint It Black is fun:

I quite like the Kamyaniy Gist version in Ukrainian too.

I'm sure I used to have a Czech album from the late 60s that had a Rolling Stones cover on it, I can't remember the name of the album or the name of the bands (I think it was split, one group on one side and one on another) but I still remember one of the (original) songs on it, I'm singing it in my head right now!

Ignore that, I've just found the album in question at discogs.com, "Šípková Růženka" by the Rebels, 1968, and Side 2 is all Mamas & Papas cover versions.
