"And your little sister's immaculate virginity wings away on the bony shoulders of a young horse named George who stole surreptitiously into her geography revision."

I don't know if the original is a masterpiece, but for my taste this version surpasses it:
And for those who like it more prog-related:
While on the subject of Joni Mitchell....
I love her original of "Urge For Going" but i also love Tom Rush's cover.YMMV.
"please do not understand me too quickly"-andre gide
The best cover ever!
Pain of Salvation's Hallelujah

“Pleasure and pain can be experienced simultaneously,” she said, gently massaging my back as we listened to her Coldplay CD.
’Cause I don’t think this one’s been posted yet:
Confirmed Bachelors: the dramedy hit of 1883...
I'm late to this one, but I need to strongly disagree with regards to that cover of The Sound Of Silence. Good lord, no. Just... no.
There are a lot of covers I like a lot, but rarely does one come along that I think surpasses the original. Here is the only one that I can think of:

Fleesh are busy working on their Marillion tribute album.
At the moment, I liked this great version of "Seasons End" even more that the original.

Aerosmith cover of The Yardbirds - Train kept a Rollin
April Wines cover of King Crimson's 21st Century Schizoid Man.
Dirty Loops covers of Brittney Spears "Circus"
Project RnL's cover of Taylor Swifts 22
Lee Ritenour's cover of "You make me feel like Dancing" ( Leo Sayer)
I like this version because it is instrumental.

I didn't realize forever that this was originally an Everly's tune:
And I agree with the opinion that Santana's "Black Magic Woman" surpasses FM's. So there.
And this...
I'm holding out for the Wilson-mixed 5.1 super-duper walletbuster special anniversary extra adjectives edition.
I'd heartily recommend seeking out Common People (originally by Pulp) and covered brilliantly by William Shatner (with the help of Joe Jackson and Ben Folds). It shouldn't work, but it does ... and works really, really well. Shatner's acting comes into play here with him spitting out some of the lines with a real venom.
Also, The Divine Comedy's cover of No-One Knows by Queens of the Stone Age is genius too.
Gary Green. Alan White. Colin Moulding. Billy Sherwood. Robby Krieger. Jay Schellen.
Cobra handling and cocaine use are a bad mix.
Another Dylan cover..
Edit: phaser lead at 6:04. holy crap.

It may or may not surpass Hendrix, but it's certainly the most brutal version of this song ever:
"And your little sister's immaculate virginity wings away on the bony shoulders of a young horse named George who stole surreptitiously into her geography revision."
