Just have to love a good cover version!

tim

I love the Manic's cover of "Umbrella". They've really made it their own, which is good as I hated the original

Probably, All Along The Watchtower - JimiHendrix, but originally by Dylan

Stranglers "Walk On By".

some of mine have already been said;

Johnny Cash - Hurt (NIN)
The Fugees - Killing Me Softly (Roberta Flack)
The Ataris - Boys of Summer (Don Henley)

I know not all will agree
But Fall Out Boys cover of Beat it is quality in my opinion.
equally as good, if not better as the original

Mad World - Gary Jules

Although I love the TFF equally as good

Sorry about starting this thread again, next time I will look, doh!
