The Awesome Covers Thread!

Oh, the Killers did a cover of Bright Eyes' "Four Winds."

It's one of the first and only Killers songs that I actually enjoyed. They definitely make it their own.

Also! I just mentioned this in the terrible covers thread, but, Ozzy Osbourne put out a covers album a few years back (out of which, three songs are Lennon). It's mostly assorted classic rock, along the lines of Bowie, Beatles, Rolling Stones...it's fairly hit and miss, but!
He did an amazing version of Sunshine of Your Love on it. I don't really care much for the original (I think it's a great song, but then they got Eric Clapton to play on it), but this version is so much fucking heavier and awesome, I just love it. I have to go put this on now. Yes. Yes.

Oh, yeh!

This technically isn't a cover, since Dylan only wrote the chorus. It's more of an homage, I guess you would say?

I am always up for this.

Vitamin String Quartet pulls off a lot of covers well, I don't like most of what they cover but looking at iTunes, they have over 200 albums. All tribute albums. I have to say they did System of a Down really well.
