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?

Linda Ronstadt's version of "Good Bye" on the What's New album.

Han's Theesink's version of "A Hundred and Ten In the Shade" on the Songs From the Southland album.

Jerry Garcia's version of "Two Soldiers" on the Jerry Garcia/David Grisman album 1991.

@heretobuy 

i think you mean the Under the Covers series from Susanna Hoffs and Mathew Sweet, not Dave Matthews.

i second your suggestion.

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.
