One of my favorites has to be Primus cover of the Pink Floyd song have a cigar. I'm not a Pink Floyd fan at all, but I am a Primus fan and they make that song for me.
What are some others?

I also really like the Metallica cover of Whiskey in the Jar. Also, Sepultura's cover of Sabbath's Symptom of the Universe

I can't believe I'm actually going to admit this...because I don't like much new mainstream music, but I really dig Five Finger Death Punch's cover of Bad Company

Sepultura did a great remake of Motorhead's Orgasmatron.
Edit: I had to go find it cuz my hand was devil horning and wouldn't stop.

Because I gotta hand it to the kid for even attempting that song!! I mean, when a mainstream so called "rock" band like Shinedown DESTROYS a song, I can't help but give props to some pimply faced 14 year old pop star for even having the balls to do a Pantera cover...let alone even knowing who Pantera is
