Here's one that's pretty good. My wife (and oldest son) are country fans and so I hear this one a LOT. 

I always liked the original song, and this is a really solid take on it.

For the hip hop lovers out there... Here's another nostalgic one. Not even what I'd call a "good" cover... Just a funny take on a song.

Dynamite Hack - Boyz In The Hood

NWA - Boyz N The Hood

Thank you for posting this, because it reminded me of a cover I forgot existed.

Same vein; not "good" but a fun drinking song in the college days.

President Harry S. Truman said: “The fundamental basis of this nation’s laws was given to Moses on the Mount.  The fundamental basis of our Bill of Rights comes from the teachings…  If we don't have the proper fundamental moral background, we will finally wind up with a totalitarian government which does not believe in rights for anybody except the state.”

One of my favorite bands from my long ago childhood was Simon and Garfunkel's Sound of Silence - best cover of that, I believe is Disturbed's version.

Never really heard of this Beatles song called Across the Universe until the movie Pleasantville came out and Fiona Apple did a cover for the movie.  

Pleasantville also ended up being a deeper movie than it was advertised.  Which is another subject.

I love the Disturbed version.  Apparently a lot of folks don't, but it takes all kinds I suppose.
