This. Glad I scrolled through the comments before I posted!
 
[quote name='Halo05']Marilyn Manson - Down in the Park (Gary Numan) - My friend from high school insisted that it was the best Manson song ever. I wouldn't take it that far but it's still pretty great. It doesn't sound great on Youtube but hey, it's free.

The Foo Fighters' rendition of this song is pretty great also.

Also, never heard Fiona Apple's cover of Across the Universe... It's pretty good.
 
Well, lets see...

Avenged Sevenfold - Walk

Machine Head - Hallowed Be Thy Name
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NLmlJT-kc1g

Fear Factory - School (always liked this better than the original by Nirvana)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oG9KqOEHPpI

And anything that NIN covers is gold... That being said, every cover of any NIN song I have heard is just terrible... if you want a good laugh, look up AFI covering Head Like a Hole or Flyleaf covering Something I Can Never Have.
