Worst Song Cover Ever

[Soviet Heavy]

What is the single worst cover of a good song you've ever heard? Every so often you find something so ear-rapingly bad that you have to declare it the worst. This thread is for those songs.

I dare you to listen to the whole thing without laughing.

43 seconds. That's it; all i could take.

 

[IBlackKiteI]

Like hell I'm listening to that. I don't want to hear that song butchered.

I heard a cover Placebo did of Nirvana's All Apologies a while ago, and it was pretty damn bad.
I love Placebo, but...damn...

 

[Phlakes]

43 seconds. That's it; all i could take.

45. Suck it.

Although, in a terribly masochistic way, I want to hear what the vocals are like. I'll be back.

EDIT: OH DEAR GOD DON'T LET YOURSELF GET TO THE VOCALS

 

[Arcticflame]

Wow, that was the laugh I direly needed.

As for bad covers, I suppose

Spoiler: Bad

.

I don't care if it's a tribute song, and an obituary, it doesn't add anything at all to the original, it's a straight rip.

Avril Lavigne mutilation of System Of A Downs Chop Suey...

Miley Cyrus' raping of Nirvana's Smells Like Teen Spirit...

Hilary Duff's abomination that is her cover of The Who's My Generation...

 

[Thaluikhain]

Spoiler: Jon Lee (S Club) sings The Long and Winding Road

OH GOD I THOUGHT THE GUITARS BROKE UNTIL I REALIZED IT WAS THE TUBBY ONE SINGING!

 

[madster11]

Yeah i waited for the vocals too.

Massive, massive regret.

 

[skywalkerlion]

Oh god. It's not nearly as bad as the one you posted though, I only made it to like 22 seconds and I laughed really hard.

What Diddy did to Kashmir with his Come With Me on the Godzilla soundtrack always ranks highest with me just because Jimmy Page went along with it. Still makes me want to vomit

 

[cuppajoe1687]

Limp Bizkit's cover of Behind Blue Eyes is pretty weak. It's not as bad as all of your posts though (That all apologies cover is particularly horrendous.

 

['The Eel']

This monstrosity:

 

[Sticky Squid]

That is quite possibly the funniest song I've heard.

 

[Soviet Heavy]

This monstrosity:

good lord I hate that. I love the Korn and Marylin Manson covers on the soundtrack, but that.... thing you just posted is an abomination.

That was the very first thing I thought of when I saw the title of this thread.

They just sucked all the life out of it. This song is about Jack's inner struggle to wrap his head around Christmas, and then the passionate triumph he feels when he thinks he's got it. It's about turmoil, passion, ambition, and discovery on a nearly psychotic level.

Nothing, absolutely NOTHING in their performance conveys any of that. It's as dead and dry as a bone. There's no feeling. No emotion. No passion. Nothing. It pisses me off that the band took the most emo, depressing shit imaginable on one of the best songs in the movie and they still let it onto the album.

 

[Fanta Grape]

It's just really pathetic... Ambitious cover of a classic

But I want to win this thread so...


EDIT:

Sorry, but I forgot to put this in;

Spoiler

Screw it. I don't have anything to top that.

Didn't the Jonas Brothers do a cover of a Beatles song? I'm going to go with it, i'd embed it but I don't know which song they covered so I don't know what to look for but i've heard it's extremely bad.
