Lots of crossover between The Nice and Emerson, Lake and Palmer, but
She Belongs to Me - the Nice do a cover of an early Bob Dylan classic
Fanfare for the Common Man and Hoedown - I call them 'covers' even though they were modern renditions of classical music, ELP paid Aaron Copland his due for performing them. And then covered by LOTS of bands.
From the Beginning was an original ELP fan favorite, covered later by Dokken
ELP did a cover of Peter Gunn too, but then, so did Art of Noise and a lot of other bands
Then Art of Noise covered Kiss which was a Prince original.
Peter Frampton's Baby I love your Way has been covered by many bands, including Will to Power
Do you feel like we do from Frampton was covered by Tesla

Lastly, in the guitar shredders world -
Steve Vai and Joe Satriani did a cover version of Enter Sandman by Metallica
They also did a live cover of ZZ Top's La Grange
Satriani's tricky because he quite often does almost complete covers of songs at his gigs, but never records them, but one that come to mind is:
Going Home - a cover of a Mark Knopfler track that was used as an OST for the movie Local Hero

Me and my Bro iN laW get into all the time about covers. Just because a hardcore band does a softcore cover doesn't make it badass. I love some bands that have done covers that I hate: Seether and Disturbed to name a couple (those always get us fighting), just different preferences IMHO, no biggie. The cover better add to the song to make me want to listen to it over the original. For example, and I may be rediculed, I will listen to Trivium's cover of Master of Puppets over the original anyday. There is bass that is audible and the production is amazing, the sound quality is nothing short of badass, and the vocals are just raw. Check it out.
