Disturbed - Sound Of Silence is the correct answer.

It elevated the original in every possible sonic way.

(and yeah ToeMissile, that's exactly why I didn't because it's so ingrained in people's consciousness [imo] but ya... here it is, the greatest cover song ever)

I'm sure most people have heard it, but you still gotta link it :p

Also, I wouldn't say elevated in every possible sonic way. At least for me, a huge part of the appeal of the original are the vocal harmonies - chills every time. This is not a dig at all on the Disturbed studio version, it's really great - if a liiiittle over-produced. I wish there was a better recording of this version, the addition of Miles Kennedy takes the cover to the next level.
