Thanks everyone for your contribution, whilst I already have most of the tunes listed above in my MP3, I've now logged many of those into the 'Cover that is possibly better than the original performer / songwriter' category. Especially Susan Boyle's fantastic performance of Wild Horse. Another masterpiece from Jagger/Richards.

Sorry Sleuth Hallelujah was written and sung by Leonard Cohen(best version) next best has got to be Jeff Buckley, will admit I as yet have not heard KD Langs version.
