All Along the Watchtower. Originally by Bob Dylan, but the cover by Jimi Hendrix was such an improvement that Dylan adopted Hendrix's arraignment.
The Green Manalishi (With The Two-Pronged Crown) Original by Fleetwood Mac, far better cover by Judas Priest.

- R.E.M.'s "Superman" is better than The Clique's.
- Barenaked Ladies' "McDonald's Girl" beats the holy hell out of Dean Friedman's version.
I'm also partial to Nirvana's version of the "The Man Who Sold The World" over Bowie's, but I undersand there's room for disagreement there. Same goes for St. Etienne' "Only Love Can Break Your Heart" over Neil Young's.
