As well as:

Black Stone Cherry's cover of Can't You See by Marshall Tucker Band.

They do the song justice, but in pretty heavy fashion.

One of my current favories, Janet Devlin, does some really good covers. Her original stuff is damn good too.

+1 on Janet Devlin. I won't post my favorite of hers because it might be considered Rick Rolling, but trust me, it's actually good.

I also like these 2:

Foo Fighters - Baker street
