Best Cover Song(s) - Monday, January 14, 2013 7:12 PM ( #1 )

So the idea here is simple. List your favorite cover song or songs. Youtube links are preferable so we can view them here. In my case, I think the covers are better than the originals. [tube]url (sans the "s" if it is https) [/tube] My favorites include: John Lennon's Imagine covered by Perfect Circle

Kate Bush's Running up that Hill covered by Placebo

And Tears for Fears Mad World covered by Gary Jules
