3. DJ Disk, at times a member of the Invisibl Skratch Piklz
4. Merle Haggard Cover
5. Nice, tight radio-length edit which distills Sasu Ripatti's strenths as Luomo. One might not think Luomo's tracks would work in a 3:30 length, but this one does. I think it was promo/digital only. From the album Paper Tigers.
T. Amelia Meath's band before Sylvan Esso. Three vocalists, spare instrumentation, no beats. I can't get into it the same way I do Sylvan Esso.
E. I did a remix of this with my crude tools back in college, where I time-stretched it and then sped it up. Lots of clipping, chipmunk-pitched, regular speed. Hearing this I want to hear my version. (Or &mu'-ziq's different but similar song of the same title from Lunatic Harness).
Sorry, was going to do a post over lunch.
Sorry to step on your toes. I had my list written and wanted to close the document.

2. Lord, I Hope This Day Is Good--Don Williams
3. Don't Let the Sun Go Down on Me--Elton John
4. Fire and Rain--James Taylor
5. Snowbird--Anne Murray
6. Blackbird--The Beatles
7. You Make Me Feel Brand New--The Stylistics
8. Guitar Man--Bread
9. If I Could Only Win Your Love--Emmylou Harris
10. We Just Disagree--Dave Mason
Friday Music Day ... on a Monday... in 10 days.
Name a cover that's better than the original, and you're not allowed to mention Jeff Buckley or Sinead O'Connor.
Jimmy Hendrix, "All Along the Watchtower"
Johnny Cash, "Hurt"
Perhaps a controversial (and not strongly held) selection, mine would be Nirvana, "The Man Who Sold the World"
okay, extending the controversial umbrella, I'll say Manfred Mann "Blinded by the Light"
Like anything music, my favorite depends on the day and my mood. Been loving The Lemonheads cover of "Luka" lately.

Wilson Pickett, "Land of 1,000 Dances"
Digging deep, eh? ... that is better than any of those in the responses. Of those I read, my favorites:
