I'm not a fan of Rihanna, but that wasn't really a cover of the song so much as a sample...

One would think "All Along the Watch Tower" would be the most covered song.

Honestly, since it's in public domain now, I'd almost say it would Woody Guthrie's "This Land is Your Land." How many recordings by unknown (or unrecognised) artists have there been??? And I think it's hilarious since most people hear it and think "Oh...how patriotic!!!!" even though it was written as a protest song...
