The top 3 that come to mind:

Failure- Enjoy The Silence (Depeche Mode)
Deftones- Ordinary World (Sade)
(Professor Riffs gave me this a while ago and I haven't been able to get away from it)
The Darkness- Street Spirit (Radiohead)


There's about a billion on this list (Buckley's "Hallelujha" obviously included), I'm just interested to see what you say.
Don't you dare put the Deftones on a best of anything list!

This means war!!!!!!

But, for cover songs here goes:

Martin Gore - Never Turn Your Back On Mother Earth (Sparks cover)
Sparks - I Wanna Hold Your Hand (Beatles cover)
Metallica - Blitzkrieg (Blitzkrieg cover)
Faith No More - I Started A Joke (Bee Gee's cover)
Cranberries - Go Your Own Way (Fleetwood Mac cover)
Death - Painkiller (Judas Priest cover)
Mr. Bungle - 24,000 Baci - (Adriano Celetano cover)
Genital Hercules - Pee Wee's Playhouse Theme (shameless plug of my own band but we rule that song)
Merzbow - Silent Night (for the holiday season)
Cardigans - (Iron Man)

I'll stop before people start to kill me.
