Personally, I thought Dream Theater's cover of 'Stargazer' was very average.

Staind's cover of Metallica's "Nothing Else Matters" from MTV Spotlight: Metallica was amazing.
However, any band who covers Queen can be shot
Less Than Jake's "Surrender" is more upbeat than the original, and really quite amazing.

I really like "For What It's Worth" when Rush covered it, I also enjoyed Rush's "The Seeker" but not as much as the original.

Opeth does a pretty good cover of Alice in Chains' "Would?".

I can't stand Cash's version of Hurt.

Funny enough, Trent Reznor himself likes Cash's version a lot better than the original.
The worst cover ever definitely has to be Suicide Silence's cover of "Them Bones" by Alice in Chains. That is honestly some of the worst [censored] I have ever heard.

I loved Senses Fail's cover of Institutionalized by Suicidal tendencies.
There are a couple covers I like. Aiden's cover of Black Wedding.
Can't remember them all though
OH Jack white's cover of Tegan and Sara's Walking With A Ghost which is a very difficult song to cover.

the worst cover I've ever heard is Cradle of Filth's version of the Iron Maiden epic song Hallowed be thy Name

I laughed my ass off when I heard Children of Bodom cover Oops, I Did it Again.... I liked the Deathstars cover of White Wedding, though I beleive The Murderdolls did a decent cover of that song as well.
Currently though I love Ace Frehley's version of Fox on the Run...

Amen brother, Ace really did Brian Connolly justice on that one.
I'm currently loving Glenn Hughes' cover of Misty Mountain Hop. Look it up, it's well worth a listen
