That "Feelin' Good" cover on Dark Was the Night? It's goddamn epic.

for a second there i thought "why didn't i think of that?!" but to be fair, i always forget it's a cover. jeff's is pretty much the definitive version - i kinda view any versions before it as sorta rough foundations, and the covers that came after it as "lame."
also, i'm gonna add to this list 36 Crazyfists' cover of Faith No More's "Digging the Grave." They put a BIT of a metalcore twist on it, enough to increase the heaviness, but not enough to spoil the song. And it helps that Brock is a pretty distinctive vocalist, like Mike Patton.

That's the one. If you can find the live youtube version it's even better.

Personally I much, much, much prefer John Cale's version from I'm Your Fan.

Cale's version was the best thing about Shrek.
