If it's crap... We'll tell you

I'm a big fan of cover songs when they're good and sound nothing like the original. So I was wondering what are some of your favorites. Mine are in no particular order:

Dancing in the Dark: Tegan and Sara (original Springsteen)
Brown Sugar: Ryan Adams (original The Rollingstones)
Satisfaction: Cat Power (original rollingstones)
Satisfaction: Bjork and what's her name
Wild Is the Wind : Cat Power (original David Bowie)
Sea of Love: Cat Power
hhhmmm I'll have to give this some more though

Best cover album: a tribute to John Lennon called "Working Class Hero."

Outstanding music and performances!

Johnny Cash - Hurt (Original: Nine Inch Nails)

I'd definitely agree with this, Cash's cover of Hurt, is better than the original.

I dont think it is better. It is great dont get me wrong, but listening to the original after listening to the rest of The Downward Spiral just gives it that extra kick to me.
