when I was young one of my favorite songs was Manfred Mann's Earthband Blinded by the light. Later I discovered, it was a Bruce Springsteen song. nevertheless I still prefer the MME version and also the one they made of Bob Dylan's Mighty Quinn.

Johnny Cash's 'Hurt' surprised me. I was one of the people who thought Nine Inch Nails remade it for a long time.

"Respect" by Aretha Franklin. It has become so identified with her that it's easy to forget that it was written by and originally recorded by Otis Redding. He even said that he preferred her version to his.
