The loss of George Michael's dulcet tones is tragic, but I always liked Seether's cover of Careless Whisper was pretty good.

And I have a soft spot for Travis Barker's take of Crank Dat. Probably too much MvC2 as a teenager.

I've always been partial to the cover of Bad Moon Rising by Aussie band The Reels.

IMHO it works better without a hillbilly twang.

Here's another cover of Bad moon rising, by 16 Horsepower. It gets a really great, darker vibe.

How can the thread tag be Slayer but nobody posted Slayer? Considered by many to be the Metal-est song of all time, I give you Slayer's Raining Blood:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wnn47V09Q2M

But some claim it's not Metal enough. There are those who would have you believe that it's not Metal enough unless the lead singer's vocal cords weep blood during the song, so here's a more growly shouty howly version done by Vader:

Echo and the Bunnymen's cover of The Doors' "People are Strange" is a favorite of mine.
I was gonna post The Damned's cover of "Alone Again Or" but then I remembered that it is really super similar to the original so I'm not sure it even counts.

This kind of counts, Booker T and the MG's did an album that was all medleys of The Beatles album Abey Road. I'm sorry this album is way better and my personal favorite driving music.
