For goodness' sake, why? Even if he'd covered Gary Numan, it would have been more dignified. As for Sigue Sigue Sputnik, I always regarded them as an unholy cross between Generation X and Suicide without any of the good qualities of either.
Other, more recent examples of what (IMO) constitutes hype without substance;
The Strokes - Yes, thank you, I already have "Lust For Life".
The White Stripes - Tenth rate Royal Trux tribute band with the commercially viable addition of a foxy drummer.
