Weird Al's Bohemian Polka.
Marilyn Manson
Personal Jesus and Sweet Dreams
The ultimate cover, which is leaps and bounds better than the original, so much so that the guy who did the original admits that the cover is better...
Hendrix - All Along the Watchtower.
Even Dylan plays the song the way Jimi covered it when he plays live, and he's been doing that for decades.
