This thread was started out to post crappy cover versions of great songs. I seem to have gone too far with my initial post and have caused psychological damage to the few brave souls who played the song below.

Due to popular demand (and I do mean DEMAND), no more posts will be accepted in this thread.

It would be impossible to post anything worse than this anyway.

If you truly are a masochist, click to play.


OBLIGATORY DISCLAIMER: I accept no responsibility for any damage or harm caused by you playing this. You have been warned.

    I see nothing wrong with this cover -- it's simply a jazz arrangement, but obviously too much for ears unaccustomed to the genre.

      Actually, most of the people responding in here are familiar with the genre.
      As the saying goes, bad is bad.

    I don't have a video of it, but the other night at the screamo concert, one of the bands did a cover of lady gaga's poker face. Suprisingly it still sucks when the words are yelled in a loud gutteral tone and bone crushing metal melodies are played in the background.

    yeah..shocking i know.

    Yup. It's a completely different way of doing something, and the majority doesn't like it. They like what they know already...change is difficult for some.

      Is it even legal to butcher a song like that :confused:

      I have a feeling whoever wrote that song is going to kill himself. Can't say I blame him...

          And what's worse is that he looks so pleased with himself while (and after) performing it.

          Oh well. At least we should be grateful for his contribution to the lexicon of rhyming slang

      Not necessarily. There's a great AND totally different version of this song performed by Tori Amos in this thread http://www.warriorforum.com/off-topi...erformers.html.

      It's a case of understanding the song before re-interpreting it. Paul Anka just doesn't get it, Tori Amos does.

      Different doesnt always mean better. I'm all for different, but if it sucks, it just sucks.
