Best cover songs of all time

Some of my favorites are already in here. I like this one as well..


 
These are probably my two most favorite modern singers to listen to, and their “King For a Day” cover is by far the best vocal cover I have ever heard. Eric July and Lauren Babic.

 
One of my very favorite artists. BTW he wrote "Alison" which I posted earlier with Linda Ronstadt.
 
Definately better than Tiffany's bubblegum pop version. But I have to admit, as a guilty pleasure, I kind of like The Bangles pop version of Hazy Shade of Winter.
Similar confession - I really liked 10,000 Maniacs' cover of Because the Night.

Another song that deserves a plug here is Willie Nelson and Merle Haggard's cover of Pancho and Lefty. Not because I liked it nearly as much as the original, but because it introduced a lot more people to the great songwriting of Townes Van Zandt.
 
Not a huge 80's guy, but this band is one of the good ones from that era.
