    Hurt by Johnny Cash is my favorite cover song. Although Korn did a good cover of Pink Floyd Another Brick in The Wall

    I love Nirvanas covers of Lake of fire (meat puppets), Where did you sleep last night (Leadbelly) and The Man who sold the world (David Bowie). A new one that has also emerged that I think is possibly better than the original is Disturbed's cover of I still haven't found what I'm looking for by U2, but i'm not a U2 fan.
