You mean Phil Collins'?

Good question, Sushi. You've named some great ones already. I think I could make a whole list out of Dylan covers. Some of my favorites:

Nina Simone - Just Like Tom Thumb's Blues
Peter, Paul & Mary - Don't Think Twice, It's Alright
Indigo Girls - Tangled Up in Blue

I love IG's cover of "Don't Think Twice" as well. I think they sang it with Joan Baez. I also really like their cover of "Mona Lisas and Mad Hatters" (Elton John)

These three are all very good, although I still prefer Leonard Cohen's version of Hallelujiah.

Madonna - American Pie - No wait, that sucked.
The Bangles - Hazy Shade of Winter - I actually do like this one.

I think Don't Think Twice may be one of my all time favorite songs period, so it's pretty much great in any version.

"Live and Let Die" Guns N Roses
"I Will Survive" Cake
"Under Presure" My Chemical Romance & The Used

[OSUsushichic]

Not really a favorite, but Limp Bizkit's "Faith" always makes me do the "air head bang" thing.

[AMISH-SLAYER]

Everything by Puff Daddy

[SanAntonioBuck]

Endless Love - Luther Vandross & Mariah Carey

[BrutusMaximus]

Everything by Puff Daddy
