A song murdered by someone.


Is there a cover version of a song you like by the original artist that has been in your ears truly murdered by a covering artist?
Mine is 'Everybody Knows' by Leonard Cohen, absolutely murdered by Barb Jungr.

@mulveling,

Regarding No Doubt's cove of "It's My Life", I guess I have a different take. Frankly, I thought for the time it was released, it fit in very nicely. Certainly, it made younger folks aware of the song. I did not find it offensive in any way myself.

Maybe the difference between your take and mine is I find the positive attributes?
Well I hate to say it...

the latest Shelby Lynne/Allison Moorer lp, they cover "Lithium" and I just can't figure out why?
