The original is by no means bad, that defeats the whole purpose of this thread.

drain sth covered motorhead's ace of spades, and made it better than the original (imo) and judas priest covered fleetwood mac's green manalishi much better than the original. in both cases the original wasn't awful but the cover pwned

That cover was horrible. Even more horrible than the original.

That's why I used the qualifying term "slightly". It wins by the simple fact that it's not Britney Spears.
