Cover songs that actually do the original justice.

Edit: Someone mentioned Newton Faulkner's Teardrop. That was absolutely fantastic when he just did it on acoustic guitar live, before the record company smeared ear candy all over it. What were they thinking?

I don't think either are a patch on Massive Attack but have you heard Jose Gonzalez's version of Teardrop?
His version of Kylie's Hand on Your Heart is also OK.

the gnarles barkley cover of gone daddy gone is terrible

the violent femmes are amazing

that is all

oh and all recent covers of jackson songs

yes im talking about alien ant farm and fall out boy

are complete trash
 
also his kylie minogue cover is 100% better than her version tbh

and the original of heartbeats isnt very good imo
 
Klaxons - It's Not Over Yet (great version of one of my fave Cream anthems by Grace)

Metallica - So What (originally by The Anti-Nowhere League, really good fun at Donington 94, completely unexpected encore that they very rarely performed even back then)
