The Atari's 'boys of summer' cover is one of my favorites.

I also dig Vanessa carlton's version of 'paint it black'

Rusted Cage---- by Johnny Cash. It's off one of the American Recordings albums that Rick Rubin produced.

No one was more badass than the man in black.....no one.

A remake of a 90s pop song by a modern pop-punk band in 2009. This turned out really, really well. https://www.youtube.com/embed/vopCZn_9v5c Semi-Charmed Life - Four Year Strong

Some pretty good ones mentioned - here are a few that haven't come up yet:

There were a lot of great Johnny Cash covers - two that I'm surprised haven't been mentioned already are "Hurt" and "Personal Jesus."

Orgy did an angrier cover of New Order's "Blue Monday" that's worth listening to.

Korn's cover of "Another Brick in the Wall" is not a cover of just the Part II - it's an abridged version of the whole Wall album, and a pretty good one.

Stevie Ray Vaughan did a great cover of "Voodoo Chile" on "Couldn't Stand the Weather". It's hard to match Hendrix, but that was pretty close.

I have to add Season's After version of Cry Little Sister, so I don't forget. Also, Eleanor Rigby by Godhead is pretty awesome, can't forget that either.

As I clicked on this I realized I had Aerosmith singing Come Together on the radio, so there you have it. Way better than anything the Beetles ever did. Like Johnny Cash's version of Hurt as well.
