White Rabbit - Grace Potter & the Nocturnals

Not necessarily the best but pretty solid.

Originally performed by the Tremeloes in 1967, here's The Mavericks' remake from 1999. Written by Cat Stevens...

Shapes Of Things has been covered by a lot of bands. I prefer Gary Moore's version.

This thread is about remakes...not straight up covers, right?

I've always loved joe Cocker's version of "With a Little Help From My Friends"

"Mama Told Me Not to Come" - original Randy Newman; remake Three Dog Night. Almost all, if not all, of Three Dog Night's songs were excellent cover songs.

I think that nominations of "Take Me to the River" and "I Just Want to Make Love to You" are excellent choices, too.
