Re-recording one of your own songs so it sounds like a cover version; now there's a crime.

Hey, Jimmy Percy, you hit the bums note when you re-recorded your band's 'classic' song Hurry Up, Harry to coincide with the World Cup.

I know you're reading this Jimmy Percy.

Give me back my ears.

Ozzie covering "Mississippi Queen": A terrible version of a god-awful song.

There is a local metal band here in Gainesville called Gettin' Deep that does a cover of "Zombie" by the Cranberries. All of you that don't ever have to hear it are the lucky ones.

Courtney Love's band Hole has covered "Pale Blue Eyes!" I have not heard this, and never will, but I bet it fucking horribly sucks!

Limp Bizkit covered "Behind Blue Eyes".

Not crap at all. They go for it.

In fact Slayer might have been somewhat improved with a bit more 'baby I want you' action.

"Your bastard sons begat your cunting daughters... baby, I want you!"

But seriously. Not crap.

Ones that come to mind are Manfred Mann's cover of "Blinded by the Light"...[/quote]

How can it be the worst cover ever recorded when it's better than the original?
