If you are going to cover anyone Kate Bush is a good bet.

Similarly there is a cover out there of Tori Amos covering Slayer's Raing Blood!
I've listened to it a few times, but buggered if I can hear any similarity apart from the lyrics.
She has also done Smells Like Teen Spirit which is a bit easier to identify.

Dunno if this counts or not but a leather clad Miley Cyrus does a raunchy cover of Zeppelin's 'Black Dog'.

Just search ‘punk does pop’ on YouTube
There’s some great stuff on there
And some absolute garbage
I’ll put in Limp Bizkit doing faith by George michael, which is both brilliant and awful at the same time

That fits.
Similar to Maiden never playing Charlotte The Harlot or Bring Your Daughter To The Slaughter (although that was quite shit anyway).
Some lyrics age better than others...

I worked on Metallica’s last tour and to my annoyance they didn’t play it, I asked their manager and the reply was along the lines of “they ain’t kids anymore”

Disturbed are a metal band, albeit on the softer side of the many sub-genres of metal.
Not sure what you're confused about. Their cover of Sound of Silence has been widely acclaimed as a great cover version.
