When I search youtube I get frustrated with covers of songs. But I've found a couple good ones which I'll share
Band on the Run cover by Foo Fighters, and
Just Like Heaven (The Cure) cover by AFI

Play

If you search Bob Dylan every single song is someone trying to cover him. Hate that so much.

I can't believe I didn't post this one first. I love The Good Year Pimps and the best part of their shows is this song.

I like this but I'm disappointed in the drum riff. That could be because the Phil Collins version has the best ever drum riff. This is good but it just makes me want to hear Phil Collins.

Agree. The original is better.
That's the case most of the time though
