Your favorite Cover Song of all time

[noharleyyet]

I can imagine ol Tom would've conjured up a banger that would've rendered The Ataris version to be, well, less than, if not non existent.

No doubt but Henley, IMO, had the magic voice for that tune. That song also has a drum machine.

Hard not to appreciate this one. Props to Kris Myers for drumming and singing.

Definitely SRV doing 'Voodoo Child' but a close second is Metallica's version of 'Turn the Page'

I’m not sure it’s my favorite cover of all time, but I’ve listened to it 100 times in the past month. She absolutely nails it, and I think I might want this played at my funeral

Three way tie.

Edit - make it a four way.

I wish there was a good studio version of this. But first cover that popped into my head.

Doc Watson pretty much only did covers. I posted Columbus Stockade Blues in another thread a minute ago. Otherwise:
