Seether covering Careless Whisper, George Michael is rolling over and bending over backwards in his grave because of this. Oh he's alive, my mistake.

Some great ones there everyone!

Not in the same league but worth mentioning....I think that Aerosmith's version of Come Together sucks donkey balls.

That cover is usually considered one of the greatest. Most people, (in my generation at least) think Aerosmith wrote the song and don't realize it's a cover.

Really? By whom??? (Besides my pal Elwood....who undoubtedly would agree with me if it would have been a Stones song!) :dunno:

Call me old fashioned but, to me, it's just awful. I'm sorry.

Thanks for reminding me: One of the worst covers EVER is Guns-N-Roses attempt at "Sympathy For The Devil".


Some songs shouldn't be covered...there ought to be a list.

Wait a minute.....
 
Elwood mentioned him before, but look at this shit:

That was hilariously bad! :rofl2: :rofl2: :rofl: I think it's so bad that it's actually good. :D

Something a bit different, but this sprung up in my head right after that one and should suit the thread just fine:

Metallica - Enter Sandman vs. Songsmith

Muse - Starlight vs. Songsmith
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4cDkuJyAuXM

Queen - We Will Rock You vs. Songsmith
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=22AWPW5s4EA

These have not been played by humans, but a horrible little program called Microsoft Songsmith.
 
manfred mann's awful cover of bruce springsteen's blinded by the light is the worst. i think paul anka doing smells like teen spirit wasn't that bad
 
Any band that uses songs from 70s/80/90s and murders it should be shot themselves. Westlife, The Saturdays, any X-Factor no-talent b*stard.
