Hmm, I must have missed the techno sounding section in the original version. I guess they must have spelled it out W-H-O... A, Instead of L-I-M-P... A. If it sounded the same how is it really a cover, what's the point?

sleepy jack 01-03-2006 12:17 PM
If it sounded the same how does it suck and the original is amazing?

I NEVER said it sounded the same, that was you saying that duh. It does suck, and the original is good, not amazing.

I agree with you there, man!!!:wave: People gotta learn that eventually their favorite band's songs are going to be covered by another artist...
...So what if that artists version sucks!!!:usehead: Your favorite band's song will still sound the same.

That one is related to me so just wait a few <insert time period here> and she will end up like me :pimp:

Yeah Limp Bizkit has speak and spell guest sing on their cover, but aside from that, they did almost nothign diffrent.

And I'd like you all to look up "rape" if you think thats what they did to the song.

Merkaba 01-03-2006 08:45 PM
Speaking of Limp Bizkit, I wholeheartedly feel that they did a fantastic job with the Mission Impossible theme music. I know the actual song isn't a cover in itself but the theme music in my opinion really was 'kick arse'.

right-track 01-04-2006 03:54 PM
Marc Almond and his awful version of Judy Street's "What".

Spoilt a great tune. Can't listen to it in the same way anymore. :(

half_baked87 01-04-2006 04:47 PM
actually yeah limp did do a good job with mission impossible. i still can't stand the who cover though, i just don't like it. hands down. the original is nothing godly either, but it didnt deserve fred durst.

Worst Covers Ever

Korn - Another Brick In The Wall (Part 2)
Limp Bizkit - Behind Blue Eyes
??? Some techno - Heaven (Bryan Adams)


What the hell is with the "D-I-S-C-O-V-E-R, DISCOVER" **** in the Bizkit cover? If you're gonna do a cover, at least don't butcher the hell out of it and add your own electronic verses.

And my girlfriend liked when I played her "Heaven" by Bryan Adams until I heard it covered on pop radio with one of those OON-SIKA OON-SIKA OON-SIKA beats behind it. That can ruin any song.

Jessica Rabbit isn't a rabbit... heh. Have you not seen Who Framed Roger Rabbit?

And DJ Sammy covered the Bryan Adams song, but i agree, totally killed it.

SeaShells 01-05-2006 08:17 PM
Madonna's "American Pie" is close to one of the worst covers EVER. It doesn't make me like the original any less tho.

DJ Sammy also did "Boys of Summer". Bleeeh

Urban Hat€monger ? 01-05-2006 11:03 PM
How on earth does someone ruin a Brian Adams song?

TheBig3 01-05-2006 11:57 PM
/\ ****ing bingo

MURDER JUNKIE 01-06-2006 12:00 AM
When I was in my band we used to routinely ruin Summer of 69 with ska breaks and stuff. The kids loved it :pimp:

except i'm sure you weren't ruining it, any change to that song would be an improvement. Whoever mentioned madonna's cover of american pie is dead on, i think that has to be one of the worst covers in the history of music.

I don't think I've ever heard a bad version of Summer of '69 - even at kareoke! It is just the sort of song that gets everyone groovin along. I guess the more influenced you are by alcohol, the better it sounds.

Alien Ant Farm did a pretty bad job on "Smooth Criminal" too!!!:nono: Alien Ant Farm simply didn't make "Smooth Criminal" sound better...
...you just get to hear a worse version that was played too much!!!What a damn shame, ya know?

No I don't know.


But you really are an annoying fuck.


I personally like what AAF did with it.

they did an excellent job with that song. i like it better than the original. and althugh you might say "ya know" a lot in person, it looks pretty retarded when you type it out every goddamn time.

Urban Hat€monger ? 01-07-2006 09:59 PM
Alien Ant Farm is better than Micheal Jackson? :laughing:

Oh please , it just sounds like every other metal band covering an 80s pop song , there`s no originality in it at all.

half_baked87 01-08-2006 12:31 AM
i like it better. they didn't ruin it anyways. alein ant farm isn't a metal band.

P.S. - Best Britney Spears cover has got to be Travis covering "Hit Me Baby One More Time"
