Name the cover songs you wish were never made....here's a couple to start off.
Ozzy Osbourne - In My Life (Beatles cover)
Wilson Phillips - Go Your Own Way (Fleetwood Mac cover)
Marilyn Manson - Personal Jesus (Depeche Mode Cover)
+ anything that was a good song, and then changed into a dance/techno song.

well, some of those good song-->dance/techno song conversions can be funny.

Avril Lavigne(sp?) Chop Suey (System Of A Down Cover)
I have to admit though, it was funny!
Also, there's a whole album of Beatles songs done by dogs and cats. I guess they recorded various animal noises and determined the pitch of each and then mixed them to sound like Beatles songs. It sounds like a neat idea for a school project or something, but I can't believe that was actually given a proper release. My mom bought it from one of those CD clubs not knowing what it was.

^I heard the recording of that and though it was brutal I'm pretty sure it was supposed to be a joke.

Does anyone remember when some metal band did a cover of Madonna's 'Music' and it was all over much music and shit.
Man, that was terrible.

Worst cover EVER....Avril Lavigne-Fuel (originally done by Metallica). I listened to it and died a little inside.

Okay...Bowling For Soup- Summer Of '69 (Bryan Adams cover)
Hillary Duff- Our Lips Are Sealed (Go Go's cover) definitely
AFI- Head Like A Hole (NIN cover)
Never Heard Of It- Build Me Up Buttercup (umm...who DID originally sing this anyway? Far too many covers of this one...haha)
The Hippos- Always Something There To Remind Me (another one I've got no idea who originally did...hmm)
And the list goes on and on...
Oh yeah, didn't Korn cover some Pink Floyd? I think it was Korn anyway. Ehn, I didn't care for it. *shrug* Pink Floyd can never be duplicated. Never.
