Yes. You read my mind. I was just about to post it. Greatest guitar solo in history.
 
Heard another one I really like in the car today. Mrs Robinson by the Lemonheads.

 
This guy has a whole channel full of covers, most of them are really good but I especially like these two:




 
Pretty much anything by Foxes and Fossils

 
Technically Cash "Ring of Fire" was recorded by his sister in law before he did it.

Janis Joplin "Piece of my heart"

Rolling Stones "Time is on my side"

Eric Clapton "Cocaine" and "After midnight"

Tesla "Signs"
 
Pretty much anyone covered anything from Tom Waits and Bob Dylan did it better.
 
One of my favorites….
 
Snoop - Ladi dadi
Fugees - killing me softly
 
Shawn James - AIn't no Sunshine is incredible so are all of his other covers and original music. Dude gives me goosebumps and is an incredible person too.

Here's mine.



This was released in 1975, shortly after Yes began touring America. It has stuck in my mind ever since!
 
Much better than the Roy Orbison version

If we're talking Time Stand Still covers, this one wins hands down. Punches me in the gut every time I hear it.

 
John Mayer Trio - Wait Until Tomorrow (Where The Light Is)
