Anyway, there's a huge bunch of covers I like, here's a few from the top of my head:

A Perfect Circle - Imagine

It took me a while to get used to it, but I love it now.

Emiliana Torrini - If You Go Away

This is originally a french song and it has been covered by hundreds of artists, lots of them well known; This version is by far my favorite. Not for suicidal people...

Jeff Buckley - Hallelujah

Originally by Leonard Cohen. I love Cohen, but Jeff Buckley's version simply can't be matched.

Metallica - Whiskey In The Jar

I played the original Thin Lizzy version to a friend and he was like "WTF IS THIS SHIT!" :D I like their version too, though, but Metallica did a better job at it.
