Jeff Buckley's Lilac Wine and Hallelujah for starters. Allison Crowe's cover of Joni Mitchell's River and Leonard Cohen's Hallelujah are both really good as well.
Another personal favorite of mine is the Joan Baez cover of Forever Young.
And as noted before The Clash's I fought the Law and Nirvana's The Man Who Sold the World are both really, really good as well.

It's an image worth pondering for a moment. Maybe, when you cut past the instrumental and songwriting virtuosity, the funny voices and characters, what is left is a man alone in his recording studio for days at a time.

Ghost of Tom Joad is by Bruce Springsteen. Rage Against the Machine covered it. It's an excellent song ion both instances though. Although the cover is inferior in my opinion.
I would like to add Hurt, after hearing it for the first time a few days ago. Of course it was already mentioned..I just like to portray my ignorance.
The cover that the Dropkick Murphys did of Baba O'Reilly
