What's your favorite remake of a song

When I first saw this post I was clueless (probably still the case in a larger context) but the other day on XM Fred I heard Devo's version of The 'Stone's "(I Can't Get No) Satisfaction"...what a great cover! At the moment, "my favorite remake of a song".

Michael Hedges' remake of JimI Hendrix "All along the watchtower" is pretty good for a lighter version of a clssic but I am not even sure if Hendrix was the first.

Was Dylan first?

Okay, I've been posting both amusing and serious covers.

In the seriously good category, I like the entire album of covers of Carpenters songs: "If I Were a Carpenter" by various alternative rock artists. I particularly liked Redd Kross' cover of "Yesterday Once More," Sonic Youth's "Superstar," Shonen Knife's "Top of the World" and Crakers "Rainy Days and Mondays."

Does anyone else like Johnny Cash's cover of Trent Reznor's "Hurt?"

Although I really like the original much more, Emmylou Harris' cover of Dylan's "Every Grain of Sand" is terrific too.

Check out Devo's "Working in a Coal Mine". Also, view Devo's first appearance on Saturday Night Live in, I think, 1977, 78 at the latest. Kinda like a Beatles and Elvis on the Ed Sullivan Show moment - a culture defining moment announcing the arrival of the Punk Movement to the U.S.A.
