The two big, well-known ones that always come to mind for me are:
  • Devo's cover of the Rolling Stones' "Satisfaction"
  • Cowboy Junkies' cover of the Velvet Underground's "Sweet Jane"

But all these are also great:
  • Alien Sex Fiend's cover of the Cramps' "Silver Machine"
  • Cornelius's cover of the old, old song "Brazil" (according to Wikipedia written by someone named Ary Barroso)
  • Faith No More's cover of the Dead Kennedys "Let's Lynch the Landlord"
  • The super-sleezy Motorhead/Wendy O. Williams cover of Tammy Wynette's "Stand By Your Man"
  • Mike Ness' cove of Bob Dylan's "Don't Think Twice"
  • REM's cover of the Velvet Underground's "Pale Blue Eyes"
  • Also REM's cover of the Clique's "I Am Superman"
