you guys r missing out on a very obvious one
clearly "hallelujah" by jeff buckley is better than the original by leonard cohen.

I really like Sepultura's version of Orgasmatron.

All Along the Watch Tower - Jimi Hendrix


I know there is more, but I can't think of any.

Another Brick in the Wall - Kron was pretty good, not better then PInk Floyds.

im a big fan of the beatles, but i watched dave matthews version of "in my life" at a tribute, and i was blown away.

NIRVANA-The Man Who SOld The WOrld
Pearl Jam-LAst Kiss

agreed.

also, i think Rage Against The Machine's version of Renegades Of Funk is better than Afrika Bambatta's (Sp?).

i'm not sure whether i like josé gonzales' version of heartbeats or The Knife's better, they're both so different, i like them both, but i think the majority would prefer José gonzales' ? i dunno.

You are kidding right???

america (orig by simon and garfunkle) - Yes

Adeaze - How Deep Is Your Love (Bee Gee's)

If you're into that kind of thing, of course.
