Aerosmith version of I'm Down by the Beatles. Aerosmith version of Milk Cow Blues. Of course there are hardly any well known versions of MCB before Aerosmith.

Wreckless Eric's Whole Wide World is much better than the original version by the Monkees.

I never knew Whole wide world was a Monkees song
and Yes,Erics versions much better,BUT your Top Link goes to a Dreadful cover by The Proclaimers.Heres a link to Wreckless Erics version - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cUFL8...eature=related
My nomination for a great coverwould be Big Black doing (Kraftwerk's)The Model - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eP3ge9DGsKU

Israel Kamakawiwo'ole's versions of "Somwhere Over the Rainbow" by Harold Arlen and E.Y. Harburg and "What a Wonderful World" by Bob Thiele (as "George Douglas") and George David Weiss though Louis Armstrong was the first to record the song. Neither is better than the original version, but they are every bit as good.
