I really like the song as a song, but I've never really thought about it as a tribute. I really couldn't stand the Diana version, though; it just seemed incredibly cheesy.
By the Godawful Puff Daddy song, do you mean the creepy and cringeworthy take-off of "Every Step You Take," or was that somebody else?
The only good musical tributes that come to mind are those that seem to be about the artist's family -- ie, "Leader of the Band" (um, Dan Fogerty?).
