Here are some of my favorites:
"Land of Confusion" originally by Genesis, the remake by Disturbed kicks azz.
"In the Air tonight" originally by Genesis, remade by NonPoint.
"Epic" by Faith No more, Atreyu has a awesome rendition of that song.
"Midlife Crisis" originally by Faith No More, Distrubed remade it.
"Running up that hill" Kate Bush, Placebo recorded their version of it, sweeet. ;)
"Welcome Home, Sanatarium" by Metallica, Bullet for my Valentine's remake is pretty good, but I still prefer the original.
Whats your favorite song remake?
"These Boots are Made for Walkin", originally by Nancy Sinatra, covered by Government Issue. The song has more nuance, based on the Doc Marten fetish in the hardcore punk scene.
Til' The End Of The Day - Kinks cover by Big Star!
Bob Dylan's version of "House of the Rising Sun."
