What's your favorite remake of a song

I know most remakes fall short of the original, but I suspect that it's usually due to the fact that the original was known and popular. The remake usually pales by comparison, but I've heard a few things lately that I really liked, and wondered what others have enjoyed...

I just heard a re-make of one of my favorite songs from the 70's, done by one of my all time favorite bands. Metallica's version of Bob Segar's "Turn The Page"

I have to say that STEVIE RAY VAUGHN'S remake of Voodoo child has to be one of the most intense remakes I have ever heard. Evertime I play it for someone , It's not until Stevie starts singing that people don't realize it isn't hendrix.

My friend DEVO was punk. Alot of the music that was popular for them was there mellow stuff, there earlier stuff was much more intense. Another great band from that era that made it big and people don't realize they started punk, was OINGO BOINGO
