    Marilyn Mansn - Tainted Love

    Worst. Humm, everyone who has covered Led Zeppelin. That horrendous rap cover of INXS recently.

    Korn - Brick in the wall it pretty terrible.

    Nilssons 'Without you' is actually a cover, its a Badfinger song, but i get your point and agree about Rose Royce.

    A great cover is Billie Jean by The Bates, but i agree with Viking Erik. jimi Hendrix' all along the watchtower is quality

    That should be made a crime punishable by anal rape with a garden hose.

    Johnny Cash version is better than the Nine Inch Nails original imo. What the **** was Leona Lewis doing singing a song about heroin addiction and then saying it will be on her Christmas EP.

    What is the EP called?

    Ie just clicked on the Miley Cyrus version of Nevermind. Seriously? Nothing wrong with it at all. Apart from it being performed to an audience who probably ain't gonna get it, you can't say it is ****. Odd....Maybe, but there is nothing bad about it.

    Christy Moore beeswing gets mentioned on this site about once every couple of months. I prefer it to the original.....and his version of Aisling. Shane McGowan can fairly write a tune.

    I also prefer his version of the lonesome death of Hattie Carroll.

    william Zantzinger never forgave Bob Dylan for writing the song and reminding everyone what a **** he was.
    An article about the dead **** here:

    X Factor and Britain Loves talent seem to have developed a real taste for songs about heroin addiction and heroin inpsired pop. Doubtless Wating for my Man will be the winning song for next year......
