Can't wait for the movie.

That Mission of Burma cover is great! Here is a Russian band covering Husker Du:

... and a Japanese band covering The Dead Kennedys.

NSFW!

This is a bit gimmicky but also a 2 for 1 reggae version of Phil Collins and The Commodores. For some reason Phil Collins is huge in the Caribbean. And Busy Signal is so good....





Because the original post reminded me of an old favorite...





I hate to sell out a country man but Eddie Vedder kills me with this one...

Originally written by Sting of all people, I Hung My Head covered by Johnny Cash is soul-shattering. One of my favorite songs and performances ever. If ever there was a song that was made for an artist to perform, it's this song and this artist. Listen to it more than once.

Patti Smith and the band just kill it. Starts slow and works up to hurricane force frenzy

Grady - Ride Like Hell
not sure this counts as a cover since Gordie Johnson lead both Big Sugar and Grady

I just learned this evening that Kak Channthy (lead singer) of The Cambodian Space Project died a couple months back in a car accident in Phnom Penh.

Always been a favorite of mine. STP always had a slight sense of sorrow that makes all of their songs very layered:



As a kid I always assumed this was the original. Later I found out it was a much older song:



Similarly:



And on the Hendrix vibe:



And just for silly fun:



I know Joe Cocker has already been mentioned, but he did put on one of the best live performances of all time at Woodstock.
