Hurt is the obvious answer, Trent Renzor basically officially handed that song to Johnny Cash.

I had no clue that was a cover, the Cash version is just so....natural.

I fall into the Trent Reznor camp on this. The Johnny Cash version is undoubtedly great, but a little... toothless(?)... compared to the original?

if you watch the music video it's clearly meant to be the lamentation of a dying old man which is why it feels toothless

And for a more personal pick, John Coltrane's My Favorite Things.
