What's your favourite cover song?

I've been listening to a lot of covers lately and would like to know what your favourite cover song is.

According to the Rolling Stone, the best cover songs are:

* Jimi Hendrix: Bob Dylan’s “All Along The Watchtower”
* Johnny Cash: Nine Inch Nails’ “Hurt”
* The White Stripes: Dolly Parton’s “Jolene”
* The Fugees: Lori Lieberman’s “Killing Me Softly”
* Eric Clapton: Bob Marley’s “I Shot the Sheriff”

Here is one with Ben Folds doing Such Great Heights


And Mat Weddle doing an acoustic version of Hey Ya.

My favourite thing is "u." (As in, the "u" you put into words like colour. It's so brit, so parliamentary, so adorable.
