Worst song covers ever

[AfterForever]

Lucy Silvas - Nothing Else Matters

Worst Cover Ever.

[Newc]

Probably nowhere near the worst, but I always hated GnR's covers. Axl usually drove me up the fukkin' wall to begin with, but "Live & Let Die-yie" and "Knockin' on Heaven's Do-a-woah" took it to a whole different level of annoying.

Agreed. Those two get my vote for worst ever. Axl built a career off the multi-syllable phrase-endings like "ie-yie" and "oh-whoah".

Right after that is Aerosmith trying to cover their "prehab" selves.

Doesn't work for me. They will never have songs as good as the original Greatest Hits.

In flames did a horrible cover of land of confusion the original is good the distrubed version is ok but inflames just dunno.....

Plenty of really bad covers add atreyu's you give love a bad name...

The Dixie Chicks destroyed Landslide by Fleetwood mac.

Amen brother! The Dixie Chicks have almost made it impossible for me to listen to a dobra because they stick that hideous sound in damn near every song they do.

[SEEGERMANY]

I know this is a "worst" thread, but do any of you guys have Skid Row's "B-Sides?" Pretty cool disc featuring covers of Psycho Therapy, Come On And Love Me, Delivering The Goods, Little Wing, and What You're Doing.

[GryphonGuitar]

Rammstein's Pet Sematary comes to mind... oh brother.

[Tekky]

All-time worst cover... E'Nuff Z'Nuff - Yankee Rose

Now, I'm no fan of ChipZ and the boys, and this lame-ass attempt solidified it even more.

Another one that does GOOD covers (does funny equal good?) is Richard Cheese. Youtube him and laugh your ass off. His version of People=Shit is fucking classic.

Lets not forget Me First and the Gimme Gimmes. They are good in small doses.

And Wing is all real baby. I'm trying to find a Wing Tour Shirt! HA!

Not sure on that. I filched the tune off of Limewire using "Judas Priest" and that crap remake came up.

Ugg, I couldn't agree more. Axl has the most annoying "nose" singing and everyone thought it was the greatest. His voice sounds like cats fighting.

Worst cover for me, i`m eighteen by megadeth.

Megadeth covered that? I know they did No More Mr. Nice Guy, but I've never heard of them doing I'm 18.
