Blind Guardian’s cover of Dream A Little Dream Of Me
Similarly Blind Guardian’s cover of Mr Sandman
Seether - Careless Whisper
I know and like that song because of Seether.
A Static Lullaby - Toxic (not a big fan of the yelling in this case tho)

Full disclosure, I’m not a metalhead by any means, and Metallica isn’t always considered pure metal, but this one hits just right.

Maybe more metal-adjacent, but amazing: Everytime We Touch - Electric Callboy

This cover of Gangnam Style is one I’ve always enjoyed.
Halocene’s cover of Unholy is pretty good as well.
Artas - Gangsta’s Paradise
Dan Vasc - Toss a Coin to your Witcher
Riders in the sky by Dezperadoz
Painkiller by Death
No remorse by Cannibal Corpse
Okay I don’t really like Cradle of Filth but my husband does. But I really really like their cover of Iron Maiden’s “Hallowed Be Thy Name.” Somehow the cover has more energy than the original.
If that floats your boat, give Fear of the Dark by Graveworm a listen. Iron Maiden lends itself really well to dark metal.

Type O Negative - Summer Breeze. Particularly poignant after Peter’s passing.
