Oddly enough I'm almost sure that's the goal of that cover.

What about Amorphis's cover of that song? Not really dissing it, dont get me wrong, I normally
like them.... but that frightened me. XD

I whole-heartedly agree with that! Poor Don McLean, and his one and only good song completely butchered by that...wow, there are no appropriate insults for that woman anymore. They've all been used. When it was on the radio -all- the time, and people would sing it "because it's such a good thing!" I wanted to cry. I think I actually did a couple of times. It was horrible. I had spent the whole summer before listening to that song over and over, because it was uber-fantastic in my...oh, twelve year old head, and then Madonna had to do it, and I had to tell people, "Guys! It's not -her- song! It's a cover!" and no one believed me until they heard a DJ say it on the radio. I went to school with idiots.
Sorry, I ranted a bit. It's an awesome song that got covered by a hack.

Boys Of Summer covered by The Atari's annoys me...except for the fact that they namedropped Black Flag, which is pretty cool. It's actually not the worst cover I've ever heard, I just really dislike The Atari's, so by default I am forced to hate this cover.
muffy:
I don't mind the ataris version of that song - it's ok, in an average kind of way, which makes it better than anything else the ataris have done...
In other news, today I have heard Take That doing Kaiser Chief's Every Day I Love You Less and Less, which made me feel a little ill. I don't even like the song that much, but Take That always used to hold a special place in my heart, and now, they have gone and shat on that special place by reforming and sounding like backing singers for James Blunt.
