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.

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.

My favorite cover at the moment is Imagine by APC
Hurt by Johnny Cash and Enjoy the Silence by Lacuna Coil are also really good.

The "My Back pages" .."cover" I have in my sig is excellent.

It has some great artists performing...though Bob Dylan himself sings one verse as well...so I am not sure if you can call it cover.

Rusty Cage by Johnny Cash and Faith No More's cover of War Pigs both deserve mentioning as well.
