could you really consider that a cover since the original band was involved in it? it's more like a re-performance. sort of like linkin park and jay-z's mash-up disc. you wouldn't really call them covers. or if queen originally performed "under pressure" without david bowie and then re-released it WITH david bowie, it wouldn't be a cover... just queen featuring david bowie. haha.

I'll keep this short, im lazy. Like: EDIT: Forgot KoRn!!! - Another Brick In The Wall (Pink Floyd) Evanescance - Thoughtless (KoRn) Linkin Park - Wish (NIN) Disturbed - Land Of Confusion (Genesis) Limp Bizkit - Behind Blue Eyes (The Who) Staind - Nutshell (Alice In Chains) Staind - Comfortably Numb (Pink Floyd) Staind - Sober (Tool) Run D.M.C - Walk This Way (Aerosmith) Megadeth - Paranoid (Black Sabbath) Hate (With A Passion): Jamelia - Numb (Linkin Park) Atreyu - You Give Love A Bad Name (Bon Jovi) Arch Enemy - Symphony Of Destruction (Megadeth)
I'll be honest and admit that I never knew Land of Confusion was a cover before reading this thread, lol. I'll edit a list in here later, I don't feel like picking my brain to remember all the covers I like at the moment.
Lostpropehets have done some awesome covers... Cry Me A River (JT), Shoulder To The Wheel (Saves The Day), A View To A Kill Fightstars cover My Own Summer was decent too.
I'd like to hear that. EDIT: In contribution to a few of the covers I like: Marilyn Manson - Five To One(The Doors) Marilyn Manson - Suicide is Painless(Johnny Mandel) Marilyn Manson - Sick City(Charles Manson) Johnny Cash - Hurt(Nine Inch Nails) Linkin Park - Wish(Nine Inch Nails) I really don't listen to many covers, though.

...That prompted a combination of uncontrollable laughter, vomiting in the mouth, bleeding from the ears, and a loss of hope for rock music.
