I am a huge fan of remakes, but only if they dont change it so much that it is totally different. For example i hate when rap songs use older songs as there background beats and they dont even sound the same at all. But here are some of my favorites:

Original-

Remake-

 

Original- American Woman- Guess Who

Remake-

( I think i like this version only because of the video, do you blame me, drool. Ill give you a hint: it has nothing to do with Lenny Kravitz)

 

Original-

Remake- Holy Diver- Killswitch Engage

( i think this version gives the original more justice then any other)

 

Original- Good Times, Bad Times- Led Zeppelin

Remake-

 

Original-

Remake- Simple Man- Shinedwon

(this is prob my favorite song of all time, and the remake is good too)

 

I also like these songs too. i did not bother puting originals because they are Irish folk songs, and have been covered many many times

OK, for all of you "old timers" out there... Here's the original "I'll Feel a Whole Lot Better" from 1965 by my all time favorite band, The Byrds (note a very young David Crosby on the far left). The remake is by another great band:
