Cover songs are becoming a gene all by themselves these days. That being said, what is the best "cover" version of a well known song you've ever heard?

Umphreak says: Umphrey's McGee is the master of the cover tune. They do a unique cover for almost every show. Here are some of my favorites:
Layla
Baba O'Riley
Panama
Late in the Evening (Paul Simon)
The Song Remains the Same
Wish You Were Here (Pink Floyd, not Incubus)
Night Moves
Fool in the Rain
Walking on the Moon
My Morning Song
Because
You Never Give Me Your Money
Sun King
Mean Mr. Mustard
Polythene Pam
She Came in Through the Bathroom Window
Golden Slumbers
Carry That Weight
The End (The Beatles, not The Doors)
...I could go on...

All Along the Watch Tower performed by Jimi Hendrix and written by Bob Dylan. Also Rock 'n' Roll performed by Heart and written by Led Zepplin is very good.
