Worst Cover of a song ever

Nor do I. I’m not a huge fan of the original, though. It is great, right through the intro and verses until it gets to the cheesy chorus. “Drove my Chevy to the levy”? Really? But it’s not really even the lyrics that are the problem; the phrasing and timing becomes simultaneously predictable and pondering, and yet somehow lightweight/trivial. It was quite a feat to write a chorus that bad, in my view.

What the …!!? :scream:

I don’t know about the others, but Scissors Sisters murdering Comfortably Numb makes me squirm. They should have been jailed for crimes against music.

It always puzzled me why PF gave permission for this cover

I rather admire Yoko Ono for her peace and environmental campaigning, but I could only tolerate about 20 seconds of that, and I guess 15 of those were the intro.

Jagger and Bowie Dancing in the Streets a truly awful butchering of a fantastic tune.
