YouTube - beyonce vois sur ton chemin

i donno why she tried to imitate the sound of a French boy choir

She's just so cutting edge...

The worst thing about covers is when they are so much worse than the original its blindingly obvious...

i just listened to Nina Simone butcher Brel's ne me quitte pas ... how can anybody think he can out-perform Brel ...
but i heard Sting's version ... it's not that bad

^ One of my favourite songs that, nevermind favourite covers.

Everybody needs to listen to this. My god.

The worst cover on youtube.

^ Reminded me how much I hate Fred Durst.

I am with you there.... ugh, Fred Durst, douchebag of the century, possibly, the millenium...

you got my vote on that one.

so many good covers to pick from. but a favorite is Dead Souls - NIN(the Crow soundtrack) - Joy Division
