Covers that are better than the original

Quite straightforward I think ... I'll start off with this one.
One by Johnny Cash

Edit! Do you agree or disagree?

Bristow, VA - 5/13/10
Just perfect.
I agree, also Hurt by Johnny Cash. One of the most emotional song ever.

Might not get agreement on this one, seeing how awesome the original is
but I adore this man and wish he hadn't left this world wanting more

I can see someone saying these covers are good, but saying they are better than the original versions, which are classics, is preposterous.

"better" is because it's different and who covers it does it justice
it all really comes down to personal preferences, imo

Knockin' On Heaven's Door - Warren Zevon
Knockin' on Heavens Door - GNR is probably one of my least favorite covers ever
Crazy Mary - Pearl Jam
Love in Vain - The Rolling Stones
Just My Imagination - The Rolling Stones
Where Did You Sleep Last Night? - Nirvana
I Heard It Through the Grapevine - CCR
It may be blasphemy, and Ed would probably ask me to turn in my Ten Club membership, but I think Pearl Jam does Love Reign O'er Me better than the Who.
when i saw this thread first thing i thought of was this song but by the waterboys. i think this version beats them all by miles. this might be one of my all time favorite covers, by any artist.
