Wow, one of your mixes is doing swell in the ratings! But remember, Bob Dole did 'swell' in the primaries...

And you need to take out the %20 that shows up when you clicky. It's not the link, it's MTC coding.

I could only watch a minute of the P. Diddy version of "Kashmir" for Godzilla - goddamn, awful. "cause just like that movie, this just takes something that was really really cool and ends up being hollow and silly."

Jim Carrey fucks up good doing "I Am the Walrus"; Oasis did that so much better, imo.

Haha, and I actually lovee The Ataris' take on "Boys of Summer".

THANKS FOR SHARING. :)

And also, I really really really hope Amy Winehouse is somewhere on that list with "Beat It".

I own the Pat Boone CD. It's a perfect example of Mid Life Crisis dressed in leather...brilliant with a lot of painful bowel movement.

Despite the fact that TEAM ROBOT was crushed like a Pabst can at a frat party by the might claws of TEAM MONSTER, you are still deserving of a badge... Loser.

This list is a lot of fun, although you have to be suspicious of any editorial that describes 'Give a Little Bit" as the 'Supertramp classic', wars have been fought for less. Unless I missed it when I skipped through the list just now, they have missed out on what I have always believed was the worst cover of all time. It happened yonks ago in England. "Grease" fever was at its height when two overweight and unfunny 'comedians' (Arthur Mullard and Hilda Baker) recorded a cover of 'You're The One That I Want.' I think it was actually a top ten hit. It was never meant to be a good record, but it was about as funny as a ruptured spleen! Hilda Baker had previously starred in a UK sitcom where she had a catchphrase, "Have You Been, Walter?" where she would be constantly asking this simple guy if he had taken a dump or not. Sometimes my homeland makes me so proud!

Remembering you may have to adjust this link after the MTC coding is through with it, here is a chance to see the 'You're The One That I Want' cover for yourselves.
