You've got to be joking.
That makes my ears bleed. It also gets my vote for all-time WORST cover ever.

Stev Ouimette playing The Devil Went Down to Georgia. This is an interesting take on the song. I especially enjoy the "fiddling" parts.

Happy Friday everyone!:banger

All the William Shatner covers not withstanding, my vote goes to Metallica's version of "Turn The Page". Love Metallica, but that cover blows.

Priest also did a a great job with Fleetwood Mac's "Green Manalishi". :tu

I sure am glad someone said it. Heard that cover years ago and couldn't believe how bad it was butchered.:2

Re: Interesting Covers of Classic Hits
 

By all means are these not considered, "classic hits", but they're guilty pleasures of mine...

Baby, Now That I've Found You - Alison Krauss & Union Station (originally performed by The Foundations) - Just incredibly great musicians.

Somebody That I Used To Know - Walk Off the Earth (originally performed by Goyte) - These guys have done a lot of covers, and have fun doing them.

Pink - Crazy
Pink - Me and Bobby Magee

Not a fan of Dolly myself, but I do like the cover and I cannot explain why...

Have a bunch of their stuff. It's funny that they can done only covers and be so good. I know that it's a side job from the main band, but they do a great job.

Re: Interesting Covers of Classic Hits
 

Blues Traveler does a cover of this song in concert that is unbelievable!!! They usually start the set off with it, break into another song inthe middle then end the set with it. Popper on the harmonica doing the fiddle part is just a sight to see.
I am usually not a person that likes covers better than the real song, but this is definitely up there.
Here's an OLD SCHOOL version of it. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l83dArJkQzs
