Johnny Cash - Hurt

Love me some Nine Inch Nails but Cash's version was better.

Ohhhhh, OK, you meant music covers...

All along the Watchtower is the GOAT cover IMHO.

Crossroads - Clapton

You Better Run - Pat Beneath

Tainted Love - Soft Cell

Woodstock - CSNY

Bobby McGee - Janis

Any Led Zeppelin Song

City of New Orleans - Arlo Guthrie

Wall of Life - Shooter Jennings 

Live and Let Die, Guns n Roses.

i have always disagreed with this popular opinion.

Billy Idol Mony Mony

Cheap Trick Don’t be Cruel

Whitney I Will Always Love You

George Michael Don’t Let Sun Go Down on Me

Mariah Carey Without You

Mariah Carey I’ll be There

Roll Over Beethoven, Jeff Lynne (ELO)

"Can't Explain" - Scorpions

"Chest Fever" - The Godz

I'm afraid this could be the Nickleback of covers....but "Tainted Love" and "Sweet Dreams" by Marilyn Manson.

Also, check out Two Cellos (back before instrumental covers were all the rage).

Here, here!  Have never understood why this doesn't get airplay on the 70's stations. This version kicked butt.

Tommy Shaw - Going to California

Billie Joe's cover of Kids in America was good too.

Not sure why, but you and Zunardo have wonky avatars. I'm going to remove both so you have the standard OC logo avatar. Feel free to add a new one or let me know what you want it changed to and I'll update it for you.

Billie Joe Armstrong did, technically not Greenday. Was one of his #nofunmonday covers during lockdown. Played it on one of the late night talk shows with his kids.

Some of my favorites: 

Clapton's Stormy Monday: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X5IdtqFf95g

Alman Brothers: Stormy Monday: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bqa1s4jhkQ8

Freddie King: Have you Ever Loved a Woman: 

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mE9H1bW-zQ4

Cream: Born Under a Bad Sign: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f1pzXJuvdAY

Wow, 2 pages and no one has mentioned Disturb's cover of Simon and Garfunkle's "Sound of Silence"?

This was done live on Conan while the lead singer was sick...still that good. Better than the original.

I also liked Bad Wolves cover of Cranberry's "Zombie"
