http://www.gindrat.ch/janis/janis-joplin-pearl-1000x990.jpg

I think I have done a pretty good job of this, listing the classics rather than my personal favourites (they are 1.Have a Little Faith in Me by John Hiatt 2 Amazing Grace Aretha Franklin and 3. Lemar's version of I Believe in a Thing Called Love)

The list below, however, are pretty recognised as the best, people may disagree with the order, but they are all pretty hard to surpass

1.Summertime (Janis Joplin)
2 Bohemian Rhapsody (Freddie Mercury/Queen)
3 Kashmir (Robert Plant, from No Quarter Unledded)
4 Child in Time (Ian Gillan)
5 Great Gig in the Sky (Clare Torry)
6 With a Little help From My Friends Joe Cocker
7 Twist and Shout John Lennon
8 Wont Get Fooled Again Roger Daltrey
9 Listen to the Lion Van Morisson
10 Rainbow in the Dark Ronnie James Dio
11 Still Loving You Klaus Meine
12 Alright Now Paul Rodgers
13 Unchained David Lee Roth
14 Landslide Stevie Nicks
15 Maggie May Rod Stewart
