Which these ones top the list:
F211 - Tom Sawyer
The Bangles - Hazy Shade of Winter
Gary Jules - Mad World
Bad ones though? That's harder than it sounds because I tend to forget terrible covers.
I would say anything Fred Durst, but I also hated most songs he covered... So I'll spare everyone the George Michael cover...
They did destroy this song, but more because Pete Townshend told them to go F themselves, so they had to bypass copyright. They would have done fine with it had they gotten to do the full cover.
Limp Bisquick - Behind Blue Eyes
Anything Kid Rock too.
But Disturbed, unlike The Bangles, did a really bass-toned off sounding version of Simon and Garfunkel. I like folky higher toned singing with that particular song.
Distrurbed - The Sounds of Silence
So, sorry to post more that I liked, it was just easier.
WOW that Tom Sawyer cover ROCKS! I never heard that one or of that band before so thanks for sharing. Hehehe it seems like Disturbed has gone into the cover band business unfortunately because some of their earlier stuff was pretty good. But that Sounds of Silence is probably as bad as Madonna's American Pie hehehehehe.
