    Israel's cover of Over the Rainbow is beautiful

    Christian Kane's cover of Fast Car is fantastic

    Sheryl Crow's version of Sweet Child of Mine.. just.. YES.

    and finally - the one that moves me to tears: Jeff Buckley's Hallelujah

    Purists might want to lynch me, but I like Love Spit Love's version of "How Soon Is Now?" (the Snake River Conspiracy version isn't bad either...)

    Huge Smiths fan but will not lynch. I love it too.

    I love a good cover. Most recently my favorite has been this one.

    That was pretty cool! I've never seen anything like that before.

    Whiskey In the Jar - Metallica

    45 - Shinedown

    There was also one that Pearl Jam covered but now I can't remember the name! It was a song from the 50's I believe about a young couple who's car stalled on railroad tracks and got hit by the train. The girl died.
