By deep I mean with the most obscure original. I am not talking ‘all along the watch tower’ but things like Fever Ray’s cover of Vashti Bunyan’s song Here before
Fever Ray is relatively well known while Bunyan had very limited success
Johnny Cash’s cover of Hurt. Trent came off a bit whiny. Cash… it’s his song now.
Probably The Man Who Sold the World covered by Midge Ure, which I find much better than Bowies original or the famous Nirvana cover.
Also really like Renegades cover by 36 Crazyfists.

The original had not much success until the cover?? Where did you get that information from?
This cover by the Afghan Whigs of the song “Lost in the Supermarket” by The Clash is really good:

Dude, London Calling (the Clash album this song is from) sold over 5 million copies. They are in no way obscure.
For real, they’re The Only Band that Matters.
probably The Association’s cover of “Windy” by Ruthann Friedman (which she wrote about a guy, btw)
