Both of those are excellent

[aoftbsten]

Jeff Buckley-Hallelujah

I'd have to agree. not many covers beat the original but this one does by miles.

[~AngelBabi~]

Kate Voegele also did a really good cover of Hallelujah.
I love the Cab's version of Disturbia

[maxvsmaradona]

Rage Against the Machine's cover of Maggie's Farm, or their cover of Eric B and Rakim's Microphone Fiend.

[mmmmmpoetry]

any beatles cover by elliott smith, it's like he was the fifth beatle.

[pblest]

Neutral Milk Hotel - Oh Comely

he really took jesse lacey's song and made it his own.

[funkel]

Jeff Buckley-Hallelujah

Better than the original, even.

[malisgreat]

xqDHGsepFLE (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xqDHGsepFLE)

it won't come near this cover though. Cartel's version is too much like Oasis' version.

[TangledUp]

Cartel's version is too much like Oasis' version.
Yeah, I suppose. I just think Will sings it really beautifully.

I also like NFG's covers. Particularly King of Wishful Thinking.

[Jetka]

In my opinion, if the band can't make it sound like the song was their own and never used by another band. It cannot be called a good cover. The best reaction to a cover is simple, "I never knew that was a cover!!"

[boxingwithstars]

Jeff Buckley-Hallelujah

Better than the original, even.

this. also, i like Gary Jules - Mad World better than the original.

Because the only covers most of these tweens know are "punk goes.." covers. It's just ignorance, they will mature musically.
