Faith Hill's cover of Janis Joplin's "Piece of my Heart" blows my mind. (:

Also the band Brand New covered an old Journey song, "Faithfully". I rather love it, not just because I'm a die hard Brand New fan, but because it's a very good cover.

I could go on.. But I don't really have the most popular choice in music, so I'll sit this out. Haha.
