"Aargh! My ears!" or, Worst Cover Ever

[gunkulator]

You can't take the Shatner stuff seriously. I'm sure he didn't.

Some more:

"Dream On" covered by Eminem in his usual fashion. Yech.

"Funkytown" cover by Psuedo Echo. Pointless.

I like the Dixie Chicks version of "Landslide".

[Agathon]

Jamie J Morgan's awful version of "Walk on the Wild Side".

[Chemical Ollie]

All the rappers stealing melodies from old hits and having some chick to sing them (like Ghetto Superstar/Islands in the Stream)

[Bugs ****ing Bunny]

Every ear-raping work of covered bastardry by Gun'n'Roses.

I think it's appropriate that the flabby ginger gob****e who fronts them chose, as a name, an anagram of "oral sex". He certainly sounds like he's coughing up a pube'n'jizz hairball.

Avril Lavigne doing Chop Suey? Holy crap

[Wernazuma III]

I cen't believe Imran takes the word "Dixie Chicks" even in his mouth

I don't know most of these covers, but imagining Brittney Spears singing Satisfaction or this English featureless-face pop idol something with "light my fire" are enough to not let me sleep tonight.

I have to say that I agree with Gunkulator about the Shatner stuff. It's a joke now, and it was a joke when he made it. A lot of these other covers are serious and that's way worse.

Sorry, but I thought the Dixie Chicks were not really loved among American right wingers for being anti-patriotic commie-traitors, but maybe their manager has told them "not to be too picky now that the play has already been on stage". Sorry for blatant stereotyping.

If I hated people for saying anti-Bush things, why in the HELL would I continue to post here .

For my part, I love this place for hating a few guys which actually results difficult for me in real life. I guess I'm pretty empathic, but once I come to know something I can get to some understanding for most people, from "lower class loser not knowing anything better than becoming Neonazi-soccer-fan" to "idealistic young man who never had to work or see people suffer but thinks with his voluntary social work he'll change the world".

at Poly, I can just hate people, although even here only a few religious zealots and trolls.

[Firelad]

From now on, I will NOT download and listen to covers advertised on Apolyton as "terrible". Yikes

I shall from now on restrict meself to Weird Al covers

PS.

I like him.

South of Heaven by Modest Mouse. Yeww.

How about some really good covers? Viva Las Vegas by Dead Kennedys? Withching Hour by Slayer& Machinehead?

blue monday - orgy

[Static Universe]

Mariah Carey's cover of Def Leppard's "Bringin' on the Heartbreak" is much worse.
