Modern Covers of Classics

I'm putting together a playlist of covers just because I'm a little bored of my current playlists. There are plenty of threads on this but I'm looking for more modern covers. Some examples I already have are:

Dancing in the Dark - Biz Colletti

Don't come around here no more - Rhianna Giddens

You Can't always get what you want  - Lainey Wilson

Cindy I'll marry you some day - Robert Plant

Paint it Black - Wednesday Addams ( I know, weird, but compelling for some reason

Any suggestions?

Matthew Sweet, Dave Matthews, whatever, he's obviously not the main attraction.

The fellow suggesting the full album cover of Dark Side of the Moon brings to mind Petra Haden singing ever vocal and instrumental part of The Who Sell Out. Petra Haden in general is someone to look into.

@jc4659 

amazing recommendation. thank you.

@ezwind +2 on Cat Power Sings Dylan. Have it on vinyl. It could, just could be one of those where the covers give a very close run to the originals...

I love Disturbed's take on the Sound of Silence, but I far prefer the live take on the Conan show to the official studio version linked above

Enjoy. This one moves my soul.
