    Rush's cover of Summertime Blues by Eddie Cochran is bloody brilliant, mind you, I love the whole Feedback album :)

    Of Montreal covering Elf Power`s `The Secret Ocean`, and The Kinks` `The World Keeps Going Round`.

    Of Montreal is the greatest band ever.

    Iron Maiden's version of "cross-eyed mary" and Johnny Cash's version of "personal jesus". The deep purple version of "Hey Joe" is worth a mention too.

    All Phish covers are great but my favorite is probably the Talking Head's Rock and Roll.

    String Cheese also does some great covers. my favorite is Bob Dylan's Tom Thumb blues.

    Panic does a great Goin Out West by Tom Waits

    And Keller does a great Til the morning comes by the Grateful Dead

    ...Oh god. Let's make babies.

    Uhh.. I really liked "Imagine", by APC ... Tool did a really good cover of "No Quarter" and a live version of "Stranglehold". Maynard's just got a sexy voice.

    Anal **** covered "Stayin' Alive." All I can say is fucking brutal. XD

    System of a Down covered "Metro".

    Covers that sucked... Any cover by Metallica. "Love Song", by 311. A bunch of other ones.

    I love the version of Black Jack Davey by the White stripes as well, great cover! Don't know if it's my favourite cover though, but it's a very nice one.
