Covers

One of the most amazing thing about music is the variety of interpretations one song can yield. There's even a podcast devoted solely to cover songs called Coverville and you can find it at www.coverville.com.
Here are a few of my favorites:
"All Along the Watchtower" by Jimi Hendrix (originally Bob Dylan)
"I Shall Not Walk Alone" by The Blind Boys of Alabama (originally Ben Harper)
"I Will" by Alison Krauss (originally The Beatles)
"Crazy Mary" by Pearl Jam (originally Victoria Williams)
"Besame Mucho" by The Beatles (written by Consuelo Vazquez)
"Jolene" by The White Stripes (originally Dolly Parton)

So what are your favorite cover songs?
