I couldn't not vote for this, since I was hoping it would be here. I love this so much. The way he sings this...really touches my heart.

6 Gallows Pole - Led Zeppelin

7 Scarborough Fair - Simon & Garfunkel

8 The Water Is Wide - Bob Dylan

9 God Save the Queen - Queen

10 La Bamba - Ritchie Valens

The Contenders

11 In My Time of Dying - Led Zeppelin

A traditional gospel song that has been covered by many people but this is the best cover. The problem is that the song was credited to all four Led Zeppelin members, instead of saying it's a cover.

12 Whiskey in the Jar - Metallica

13 When the Saints Go Marching In - Louis Armstrong
