deadpan 90s dance covers of rock songs with Meaning

jam tronik - another day in paradise
a.d.a.m. feat. amy - zombie
atlantis - d'you know what i mean

songs which are on all early 2001 dance compilations and were hit singles but no one remembers them now

santos - camels
hatiras - spaced invader

Oh boy, I *totally* remember 'Spaced Invader' - I could sing it to you if you wanted!

'Camels', on the other hand, I have literally no memory of.

Glad then that Spaced Invader erasure hasn't been totally successful, it's a cracking record

Other uk/european dance hits of the periods which I feel *are* remembered/still used on comps:
Safri Duo - Played-a-Live
Jakatta - American Dream
Planet Funk - Chase the Sun
Public Domain - Operation Blade (but not so much its inferior twin, Warp Brothers - Phat Bass)
Rui da Silva - Touch Me
M&S/The Girl Next Door - Salsoul Nugget

And more which could join Camels and Spaced Invader:
ATB feat York - The Fields of Love
Voodoo & Serano - Blood Is Pumpin'
Fragma - Every Time You Need Me
Simon - Free at Last (only a minor hit though)
Rhythmkillaz - Wack Ass MF (ditto)

songs slower than November Rain and faster than Get Lucky are now banned in Chechnya.

Songs in which a woman takes a pregnancy test:

Nilsson - "1941" (positive!)
NRBQ - "It Was a Accident" (negative!)
Lovedrug - "Skeleton Jill" (we don't find out!)
Squeeze - "Up the Junction" (positive, although the narrator seems ambivalent about impending parenthood)

Any others? Implied in Madonna "Papa Don't Preach", though it occurs before the song begins so not sure if it should count.

Older songs that invoke this trope usually reference seeing a doctor, as home pregnancy tests weren't widely available yet. I wonder if younger listeners innately understand what the doctor visit is for.

Aerosmith - "Sweet Emotion"

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rabbit_test

Wow, I had no idea what "the rabbit done died" meant in Sweet Emotion. Apparently "the rabbit died" was code for "I'm pregnant" in lots of vintage films, and the "rabbit test" was the procedure performed in the days following the aforementioned doctor visits. In actuality the rabbit always died, pregnant or not.
