    Sonic Youth’s version of “Within You Without You” is the cover we didn’t know we needed, bringing out depth and meaning lacking in the anodyne original.

    Mariah Carey - "Without You" (I wish I could say that Badfinger did the definitive version of their own song, but they didn't)

    Mike Keneally's solo acoustic version of Frank Zappa's "Inca Roads", I'm not sure if anyone else needed this but I sure did!
