A thread for artists covering others

Drive All Night - Glen Hansard and Eddie Vedder

A somewhat unknown Springsteen gem. 2 voices and 1 acoustic guitar at some music festival. Magical.

Staying Alive - Bruce Springsteen

During Bruce’s tour of Australia he paid tribute to Australian artists in the different cities he played there. Staying Alive is certainly not a song you’d think he’d do justice to, but he makes it his own and this version is cool.

Have any artists covered U2?  Sure there must be some out there but i can't think of any.  And i'm ignoring the horrible Mary J. Blige cover of One, not because it was so bad, but because i believe it was done with U2 somehow.

Crazy Mary - Pearl Jam

Cover of an unknown somewhat haunting Victoria Williams song on a benefit CD. Great song and cover.
