Unexpectedly Good Cover Versions

Having resigned myself to a few hours listening to overwrought Americans whining about whatever it is they whine about imagine my surprise when PATD 'dropped' a surprisingly good cover version of "The Weight" by The Band. The rest of it was god awful but that made my night.
