There's one that seems to feature in every TV commercial break in the UK at the moment and it's fahking rancid:
Yeuch!!
The original is great:

I wouldn't go so far as to call this "awful", but I would say "disappointing". I bought Burning Point's self-titled 2015 album and was excited to see they were going to cover the Lee Aaron classic "Metal Queen" for their next album. With Nitte Valo on vocals, I figured they'd have to work hard to screw it up. Well, they managed to find a way. The vocals are fine, but I find the synthesizer noises heard at the beginning and again starting at 2:24 annoying. Original:Cover:P.S. So I didn't buy the new Burning Point album.

And I can't decide whether I hate or love this, by a band I generally approve of:
It's so bad it's good, and then bad again, and then good again. All at once.

My contribution to the greater bad - Their entire covers LP is a large festering crock of elephant dung, but this one takes it to the next level. I thought that was OK!

The Kinks gave us some feeble covers in their early days.

Well, I have to bring up: 'Nothing compares to you' also:
The chris cornell version is almost just as bad.
They just don't do the song, correctly. Especially if you've heard the newly released demo of it.
Lol, they both did the song completely wrong.

Love Hurts – Nazareth. The Gram Parsons/Emmylou Harris version, though itself a cover, is wonderful.

Candy Flip - Strawberry Fields Forever "If there is a seventh level of imitation Madchester hell, you can bet Candy Flip are lying in it." - Richard Luck That is the worst thing I've ever seen - it's like a 1990s Manchester Beiber. The cover version isn't really that bad, but that dork in the video is awful.

I quite like the Siouxsie & Co. covers album, though I guess I should say, I heard most of the songs on that album, there first, before ever hearing the originals.

She should have just left this one alone...seriously. Cover:Original: I thought mariah sounded good vocally But the Opening lyrics are I gotta take a little time, a little time to think things over I better read between the lines, in case I need it when I'm older Now this mountain I must climb, feels like the world upon my shoulders Through the clouds I see love shine, it keeps me warm as life grows colderWhen she put "colder" where "older" Goes to skip an entire portion of the song's lyrics, That's where she fu(ked up bad!
