Smashing Pumpkins cover of Landslide is great. Obviously Hendrix cover of All Along the Watchtower and Manfred Mann's Quinn the Eskimo.

The Cars was one of my favorite bands, back in the day.
Some great choices in here

Cash does it so well, he almost redefines the song without changing its meaning. If that makes sense.

This is a traditional song that Dylan dug up, the Animals made it famous, but Waylon did it best

I've never agreed with you more

I loved this woman's voice when this band was around. (Harriet Wheeler)
Good one.
I can't find it on YouTube but I really like Secret Machines' cover of Van Morrison's "Astral Weeks."
