@Handsomedan. For some reason your previews are showing up black and I'm getting playback errors.

 

Are you using just the video ID between the youtube tags?

 

Handsomedan:

 

With over 23m views, this one has to rank right up there with the best covers (assuming you like watching VERY talented kids do a Tool cover

 

 

I thought I was...they show up as previews for me.

Does Gallows Pole by Led Zeppelin count? I love that song. It is actually an English folk song that is reputed to be hundreds of years old.

 

 

and the Page and Plant is probably the best cover.

 

 

 

 

 

Lordy, RP looks young there!

 

Zeppelin have been in my record collection since I was about 15. As a fun fact, I was at school with John Paul Jones' three daughters.

Some great links on this thread. Personally I think Jeff Buckley and Chris Cornell could sing anything and it would be better than the original.

 

Here's a couple of my favourites. All by Radiohead and referencing my love for English alternative bands.

 

Blondie - Union City Blue

 

I think this is my favourite
Joy Division/New Order - Ceremony

 

But this is a very very close second - not great quality unfortunately
Portishead - The Rip

 

The Smiths - The Headmaster Ritual

 

Finally something out of left field for Radiohead but Thom's voice is perfect for this
Carly Simon - Nobody does it better

U2's lush cover of Cole Porter's Night and Day (from 1932!) is just gorgeous.

If you like Tool covers, try Brass Against, who also do a good line in Rage Against The Machine.

I quite like this. I think it was the one that played at the end of a playlist on Spotify.

Ghost's cover of If You Have Ghosts is atmospheric and they've made it their own in the way the best covers do.
