No Doubt's "It's My Life" takes a song by the English band Talk Talk, written by Mark Hollis and Tim Friese-Greene as the title track of their 1984 album, and dresses it up for a whole new decade. Nellee Hooper produced it with the band, and they keep the original's cool, moody pulse while giving it a sleeker, slinkier finish. It's a smart choice of cover, and it paid off: the song became a hit in several countries and reached number 10 on the Billboard Hot 100 in the US.
