This is the worst Beatles cover I've heard:
Katie Noonan - Black Bird
It's even worse than the Sergio Mendes / Brasil 77 covers I've heard.

Heh, Talking Heads' take on Al Green's Take Me To The River is a bit shit too. ;) Nah, it's OK, just loses the shit Byrne said inspired him to cover it.
Man, there are so many bad covers.
Led Zeppelin's When The Levee Breaks
Elvis's Hound Dog
Simply Red's If You Don't Know Me By Now
Phil Collins' You Can't Hurry Love
... I could put in millions of one-hit wonders who did shit pop covers. Cecilia, Break My Stride, Give It Up, etc.
nufan:
Any cover the Clash did. Seriously, "Police and Thieves" is HORRENDOUS. Every time he goes "Police and thieves on the stree - eet" I wanna punch Joe Strummer VERY HARD in the mouth.

Ah, I'm an idiot. I guess I'll forgo slagging on Marilyn Manson's terrible cover of Soft Cell's "Tainted Love." :lol:
Catacombs:
I actually like Social Distortion's cover of "Tainted Love".
