Cover songs that are better than the original
So there are lots of musicians out there that do covers of mainstream songs. Some of their covers are better than the original versions of the songs. What are some cover versions of songs that you think are better than the original. Please link to youtube if you can.
I'll get us started with Alestorm's version of Hangover originally by Taio Cruz.

Another song is Hurt by Nine Inch Nails covered by Johnny Cash.

Ben Howard's version has a way different feel that is for sure. I liked it though.
Leo Moracchioli's metal covers are awesome. His version of Feel Good Inc. Original by the Gorillaz, is my fav.

This guy is crazy talented. He does drums, guitar, vocals and post editing.

Quiet Riot's version of Slade's "Cum On Feel the Noise". Distrubed's version of "Land of Confusion"; I wouldn't say it's better than Genesis', but it has it's own emotional strength to it. Jimmy Hendrix version of "All Along the Watchtower", although, frankly, I've never been impressed by Bob Dylan as a singer as much as a songwriter, so I prefer most of the versions done by others to his songs.

Hungry Covers' vocals are better than the original singers from their songs.

Followed the link as I like Postmodern Jukebox, ended up listening to their take on Muddle of Mud - Blurry (Ace combat 5 soundtrack > Ace combat 6 soundtrack)
Not gonna lie, almost fell of my chair laughing, thanks for sharing~
