Chili's 'Under The Bridge'

It's got nothing on the All Saints original.  ;)

Or in all honesty that fucking godawful noise that was Celine Dion's 'You Shook Me All Night Long'

Cant Link to it I'm at work, wouldn't if I could.

Oh there are much, much worse versions of that out in the wild.

This cunt came within 150 or so votes of being one of the bastards bastards in the Tory government.

As it is, he's the leader of Sheffield City Council. At least until the spring that is

And this


The audience start to give their appraisal around two minutes in, but I think the band assumes they're singing along?

I'm not sure why I didn't think of this before (it's quite plausible that my brain has tried to erase all memory of ever hearing them) but this thread wouldn't be complete without an offering from the "cast of Glee". Never in the history of cover versions has one group of people managed to butcher so many well known tunes. Every week another pile of vomit inducing shite leaks it's way onto the radio and I'm woken from my "shutting out the boredom of radio 1" bubble because I hear something so bad that it pops it.

I only remembered their existence because I was just subjected to what might well be the worst thing I have ever heard, tried to work out what such awfulness could be and then realised.

Click if you dare but don't say I didn't warn you....



These people need to be murdered in a horrible manner.

A song Reed refuses-to-confirm-but-so-obviously-is-about bumbling around Central Park smacked out of his head doesn't really seem like an appropriate choice for Children in Need somehow.

One of the best love songs to a drug ever written and Heather Small is singing part of it. I mean does the 'M' in M people mean mashed or something?

I've heard plenty of worse cover versions of this song but they are usually funny, this is just sterile and sad.
