Definitely Mad World by Gary Jules

[argile]

[SineRider]

Don't care for Bruce Springsteen, but this is a killer tune

[Thegluestickman]

Planet Caravan by Pantera

Stays true to the original.

This version of The Trooper is so much better than the original.

Bullshit. The vocals ruined it.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=noosm57F5 HI - System of a downs cover of Snowblind. I think they did it great.

I'm going to say the Velvet Revolver cover of Pink Floyd's "Money". It was for the 2003 remake of The Italian Job. While it isn't as good a film that one song stands out for me as being one of the best things in the entire film.

Oh, and "Mad World" by Gary Jules. When I think of that song I think of that version over the original, so that just goes to show how well done it is.

Honestly I never really got into the cover by Gary Jules it sounds little depressing compared to original by Tears and Fears.

[Grammar-Nazi]

How come no has mentioned "Take on Me" by Reel Big Fish?

[FIGMENTUM]

Atreyu covering Bon Jovi's You Give Love A Bad Name. I always get disappointed when I hear Bon Jovi's version at pubs and stuff... it just doesn't compare. : ' (

[Mismo]

Plateau - Nirvana

[InDuStRiEl]

Orgy's cover of Blue Monday.

[Klik]

How do I live covered by some guy

[Rachel]

I have loads, but the one that springs to mind is Pendulum - Violet Hill

[AnonymousAlchemist]

Turn the Page - Metallica
Hurt - Johnny Cash

Always found it kinda strange that one of Johnny Cash's last songs was a cover of Nine Inch Nails' "Hurt." He does it better than Trent Reznor though.

Michael Buble's is far superior.

Only because the Vaselines sucked so much.
