Yes, I heard that one. Sounded like a dying cat.

Give her another shot for me, on behalf of her frightening attempts to change the English language as well know it. Almost as destructive as Antz. :p

worst worst worst:

human nature (i forget what it was called, but it was originally done by some girl)

im not really a fan of just plain covers, i like remixs (like the jkxl or whatever they were called, when they did elvis' "a little less converstation" last year)

Good:
Last Kiss - Pearl Jam
Summer of '69 - Me First and The Gimmee Gimmees (actually...any MFATGG cover is good!)
Hide Your Love Away - Eddie Vedder
Sexual Healing - Ben Harper and the Innocent Criminals
Jeremiah was a Bullfrog - Ten Foot Pole

Bad:
Fuel - Avril Lavinge (wtf was she thinking?!)
Chop Suey - Avril Lavinge (see above...)
Tide is High - Atomic Kitten
and various others....like that Hey Baby song, and people who do a cover of a song....and it sounds EXACTLY the same, or the people who COMPLETLEY ruin a great song...

:) Emotion--Destiny's Child
2) Beyonce's remix of 50 Cent's 'In Da Club'--that does count, rite?

:/ No One Else Comes Close--BSB...it is still an okay song but Joe sounds better and they didnt really bother to change the version

:( Most people who try to remake Michael Jackson's songs! E.g. Shakaya and also when Alien Ant Farm redid 'Smooth Criminal.'

I'm sure there are probably heaps of songs that I love/hate out there that are covers, but I'm just not aware they're covers...

has anyone noticed that Boys of Summer has been covered again already, this one sounds a lot better though

hated Britney Spears' 'I love rock n roll' - that was BAD!
