Favorite cover?


As a (minor) film buff, I almost invariably prefer originals. But when it comes to audio, I  have found more than a few covers that I prefer to the originals. So, to kick things off, and with all due respect to Boz Scaggs, I absolutely LOVE this live Incognito version of Lowdown:

What's on the top of your lists?

YYZS - "Just played Hot Buttered Soul by Isaac Hayes and I think
WALK ON BY just kills"

+1 on Hot Buttered Soul.

I like your taste in music.
Created a Tidal playlist of covers. Some of my favorites include

Because The Night by Bruce Springsteen
Landslide by the Smashing Pumpkins
Valerie by Amy Winehouse
Easy by Faith No More
Come Together by Gary Clark, Jr.
Hallelujah by Jeff Buckley
Billie Jean by Chris Cornell 

Will be adding to my playlist from suggestions in this thread. Much enjoyed.

Incidentally, I have Van Morrison, Hard Nose the Highway CD in my car, he covers Being Green, I love Van, but what a dud
I can't name just one song; so, I'll start with a few good covers that were on TV or film soundtracks:

1) ALISON KRAUSE: "Can't Find My Way Home" (Crossing Jordan)

2) IVY: "Only A Fool Would Say That" (Me, Myself & Irene)

3) EDIE BRICKELL & NEW BOHEMIANS: "Walk On The Wild Side" (Flashback)
