For me it’s “Hard to Handle” by the Black Crowes
Didn’t realize until today that Otis Redding was the original. Listened to the original and I much prefer the Black Crowes.

I recently discovered “I Never Go Around Mirrors” by Sturgill Simpson was done by Keith Whitley before him but that was actually also a cover and Lefty Frizell was the original artist.

Ol Red was originally done by George Jones. Learned that very recently

I never realized Move it on Over by George Thorogood was a cover until I heard Hank Williams Sr singing it while flipping through the radio a few weeks back.

Not recently, but I didn't know Atlantic City was a Springsteen song for a long time

My favorite are the ones that think Nine Inch Nails covered Johnny Cash's Hurt.

I went quite a long time not knowing that Soft Cell's Tainted Love was a cover...
A few years back, I randomly heard the original one day and thought it was a cover...
Gloria Jones -Tainted Love

Just discovered in the last couple of weeks that 'Not Fade Away' and 'Well..All Right' were both Buddy Holly covers.

Huey Lewis and the News’s hit song Heart and Soul is a cover from the group Exile.
Never knew this.
I saw them live a few years back and this was definitely not in their set.

I had been listening to Living Colour's "Memories Can't Wait" since it came out in the 80's and just about a year ago found out it was a Talking Heads cover. The Talking Heads original is cool, but I just love Living Colour's version. Maybe because it is almost like I am used to it and hearing the Talking Heads is like hearing a cover, even though it is not. Weird.

"The Warning" by Black Sabbath. Originally done by Journey's first drummer, Aynsley Dunbar.

For a long, long time I did not realize that UB40's "Red, Red Wine" was a Neil Diamond song.

Until fairly recently I didn’t realize Sublime “Scarlet Begonias “ was a Dead cover. And I’m embarrassed to say so.
