[Deleted member 3435]

I recall hearing this in Das Nugs' gaff. A crime against humanity is what it is.

just saw this and would like to point out that my brother owns it.

ehem.

This is either the best, or the worst cover version in the history of music. I remain undecided, but I could easily be swayed either way to be honest.

 

[Tubby Tucker]

I don't know if this is the worst or best cover version ever; Ol' Dirty Bastard & Macy Gray covering Don't Go Breaking My Heart by Elton John & Kiki Dee -

apparently TATU covered "how soon is now". i haven't heard it but no doubt it is the stuff of nightmares.

ozzy ozbourne's version of "in my life". put him down.

It's fucking great! Russian accents struggling with unwieldy Morrisey lyrics.

Like the Smiths one. Only mangled by synths.

I'm no soft cell fanatic, but dave grey's cover of "say hello, wave goodbye" is a definite candidate for this thread in my angry little book.

A mate of mine has a soft cell doing jimi hendrix covers ep, word has it, its sucks.

i also heard a pan pipes version of the doors light my fire, which was dire.

yea and i thought their first single was pretty decent chart pop,nothin wrong with the video neither.and although that beatles cover is a shocker,ozzy's still a legend, man.

One of the more recent abominations to appear has to be the "I'll be Ready" remix from Baywatch. i think part of my soul died the first time i heard it and happy childhood memories have been erased. But its the Hoff I'm really worried about.

 

[shidheat]

that coldplay rip off of the computer love melody by kraftwerk. talk about wrecked buzz for life.

 

[Lili Marlene]

to make up for all the bad versions of I Want you to Want me Cheap Trick did a pretty awful cover of Magical Mystery Tour.

also.....

AFI - Man in a Suitcase
Xiu Xiu - anytime they cover anything
Boney M - Heart of Gold
The Jam - I Got You (I feel good)
The Ordinary Boys - Sleigh Ride
Snuff's lazier covers
Noel Gallagher - To be someone (didn't we have a nice time)

 

[Stan Bowles]

I mentioned it at the weekend, but that chipmunk version Le Tigre did of I'm so excited is terrible.

U2 - Stay. Brian Harvey would be spinning in his grave.

Pretty sure U2's Stay came out in 1993 while East 17's Stay was the following year?

Anyway they're different songs.

U2 are a far better band than East 17..|..|

i just heard that michael boublet / boob-lay (micky tit fuck?) person for the first time, massacre-ing "feeling good". so horrible i almost got sick into my own scorn.
