Artists That Should Never Ever Be Covered. Ever.

And you are the doyenne of unbridled originality in the field of music criticism? Should I change my opinions every week in order to satisfy your desire for a fresh reading experience, oh worshipful grand vizier of all that is good and pure?
Everyone repeats their fucking opinions here, because there's a huge scarcity of genuinely interesting and original threads. You just remember my opinion because it doesn't agree with yours.
@Rizzo: Replace 'on par' with 'practically identical'. Though to be fair I can't really think of many ways to take most of Gary Numans material that wouldn't be excessively gimmicky (acoustic versions, extreme metal versions, etc.).

Sounds like putting the cart before the horse to me. Do you not think that the scarcity of interesting and original threads in the music section might be linked to the tendency of everyone who frequents this part of the forum to repeat the same old weary opinions, ad nauseum?
EDIT: As a first, hopeful step towards alleviating this problem, I beg everyone's indulgence in making the following announcement:
I really fucking hate Morrissey.
And now that I've made that perfectly clear, and hopefully everybody who frequents this part of the forum is aware of my opinion in this regard, I will never mention it here again.

How about instead of a list of artists that shouldn't be covered, we make a list of artists who should never cover anything ever again. I'll start it off:
Richard Cheese
Me First & the Gimme Gimmes
The extra letter:
I'll most definitely second/third/fourth/fifth Radiohead.
I expect everyone's looking forward to Korn's version of "Creep".
I'd also like to add The Sisters of Mercy to the list of bands that should never be covered. Ever. By anyone.
Thrillho:
Nick Cave is better at doing covers - 'What A Wonderful World,' 'Rainy Night In Soho,' - than is at covering; although I prefer Shane MacGowan's vocal on 'Lucy' than Cave's.
