danmarks Posted November 22, 2020 Report Share Posted November 22, 2020 As the title says really. Bad cover versions. Live or recorded. Bloody Robson and Jerome can be in there for unchained melody. And Gareth Gates for Spirit in the Sky. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crazyfool01 Posted November 22, 2020 Report Share Posted November 22, 2020 Whilst slating Coldplay ... I think it’s important to remember this ... I’m not sure how much justice it does to the original .... but in fairness to them it moved me ... it’s also off topic slightly but is a cover 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe that explains why Sinead O’Connor was crying in her video of this song, I think she was crying because she knew that one day the song would be destroyed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Much like Al Qaeda beheading videos - you're better off never seeing them. It's like Take That don't understand Nirvana. Ot themselves.

philipsteak Posted November 22, 2020 Report Share Posted November 22, 2020 Robbie Williams - Lola. Not as bad as some of the examples in this thread but it's on a playlist at work and every time I hear it (couple of times a week) I'm annoyed that whoever put the list together chose that version instead of the Kinks. Why? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Waterdeep Posted November 22, 2020 Report Share Posted November 22, 2020 Really not enjoying the recent spate of maudlin, acoustic singer songwriter type covers of tracks that often weren't great to begin with. We've only just begun, rhythm of the night, forever young etc. See any recent Lloyds Bank advert for the latest flavour. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
