Best cover songs?

I'd go with Prelude's version of "After the Goldrush" even though they got the year wrong. Way better than the original, IMO.
 
2 choices: "Johnny B. Goode", a simple, familiar song with lyrics burned into your brain. No way to go wrong with it.

"Hey, Little Girl": Classic garage rock from The Syndicate of Sound back in the 60s. Seems like every other cover band I see as an opening act, small club, whatever, has this in their repertoire.

Honorable Mentions: "Tobacco Road", "Who Do You Love", and Joan Jett's version of "The Little Drummer Boy".
I love Peter Tosh's cover of Johnny B. Goode, with Donald Kinsey (Kinsey Report) on the guitar solo:
