| The top two I can think of that stick in my head...
Shinedown's cover of Skynryd's Simple Man. Completely butchered and ruined a classic tune.
Secondly, Disturbed's cover of Genesis' Land of Confusion...again, totally butchered. | |

| Absolutely agree on both of those! Especially Shinedowns version, you can't just take a classic song and hack it to bits... well I guess you can. | |

| I guess I just can't stand shinedown altogether. Can the guy sing? Sure...but does he OVER-sing? Absolutely...every single song is beaten down and saturated with trying waaaay too hard.
And then all those bands that over do it have to make an acoustic version too which doubles the torture. | |

| Apparently there's a Bieber cover of Pantera's Revolution Is My Name out there somewhere. Yes, Bieber covering Pantera. Don't say I didn't warn you. | |

| You have GOT to be kidding about the bieber cover....I'll be looking for that one tonight.
As far as bizkit....I don't HATE that cover until they start doing that stupid "i-i-i-i" bull crap in the middle. | |

| Yes! Thats exactly what I was gonna say about Limp Bizkits version. Its not bad until its supposed to cut to a guitar solo and then it turns out to be just DJ Lethal being lame. | |

That is the hands down winner right there. That was a really awful remake. | |

| I'm a big Poison fan...actually a big cheese rock fan...but they did a cover of Justin Timberlake's Sexy Back that made me want to cry myself to sleep from shame.... | |
