I love nearly all the Deftones Covers, And I love that they don't relase them on their main albums (Or haven't so far).
Most can can cover a song and make it a single, and gain popularity through familiarity, but these guys don't play out like that, and thats one of many reasons I love the Deftones.
I really love the Chauffer, Drive and No Ordinary Love, because they sound so sweet.

Somewhere along the line i found a cover of Depeche Modes "Sweetest Perfection" and it sounds kinda crappy, I'm sure its the Deftones,
I bought an old bootleg years ago with the song on there, and have since found it on multiple file sharing sites, But i cant seem to find it's origin, I've never seen it listed on the Linus tapes, and other demo's, So when and where was this song first located on.
And does anyone know where to find the "Best" version of it Quality wise, like a lossless source (Flac perhaps), Because that song is one of my fav DP songs, and i like the way the deftones treat it......So does Anyone wanna help a longtime Deftones fan out?  :)

Sinatra,If Only Tonight We Could Sleep,To Have & To Hold , and The Chauffeur

Yep I'd go with them too.

ignore the fashion

my all time favorite cover song would have to be right brigade

to have and to hold would be a very close second

a better version for the track hasn't circulated through the net yet. We all have the crappy mp3. I Really doubt a .flac could help very much in this case. For your interest, the song was recorded at the pus cavern in sacto at '97, and then cassetes with this and a few other covers was given away by a french radio station.

Thats the one song the Deftones covered that I didn't care for as the original song, by Duran Duran. The Deftones made it awesome. Chino sang it spot on.

If Chino sang it spot on, then how did you not like the original?
