Anything that Pippo Dodi touches, he destroys and pillaged.

I just had a huge debate with one of the interns who insisted that the new Eminem song was written by him. I had to convince him that Aerosmith wrote it first. I won because I dl it and let him hear it. Haaa, die intern scum.

Ok that version of "Hurt"... oh for the love of god it is the creepiest thing I've ever heard.

Allure's All Cried Out... love it!

The parking lot song---- reminds me of protesters and hippies... hate it any way it's made.

American Pie--- Madonna I love ya but WRONG.

Landslide... possibly one of my most favorite songs. Dixie Chicks, Chixie Dicks.... you're creepy. Don't ever remake a song that is so great of a song. You suck and you're scary looking so please stop singing this song. You ruined it for a lot of people.

And the #1 worst remake-- Beyonce and Jay-z... Me and My Girlfriend. What's with Beyonce becoming ghetto all of a sudden? Yeah... you suck, you're a slut. Get over yourself and shoot yourself while you're at it. Way to botch a song.

Funniest cover-- Eminem's version of Hail Mary doggin Ja Rule.

I agree, which is why I feel like a traitor saying that!

BUT, the cover song right after it, track 5, the remake of "I'm Not In Love " was stunning beautiful!

Nobody could cover songs like the genius himself, Weird Al.

Amen, brother. "Fat" is a classic.

My vote
 
I'm surprised that nobody has mention this.

Personally the worst cover I've heard is Mariah Carey's "interpretation" of "The Beautiful One's"

Why, why, why? That is a classic Prince song and you messed it up. Why? Why? Why? Why?

The new Uncle Kracker version of "Drift Away". Trailer trash ruined one of my favorite songs of all time.

Sheryl Crow doing "D'yer Mak'er" by Led Zepplin.

Sixpence None the Richer "Don't Dream It's Over"

I can't believe I forgot this one! I've been complaining about it every time it comes on the radio.

Oh, another cover I cringed when I heard was Barbara Streisand's cover of the Beatles "In My Life", Which I believe is one of the best songs by them.

What about Fiona Apple's cover of "Across the Universe"?

I would LOVE to hear Mariah Carey sing "Pussy Control" by Prince.... or Justin Timberlake singing "Darling Nicky"... except the Justin one would prolly turn on way too many high school girls.:p

That was Gloria Estefan. I hate it also. I do like how the Ataris put their signature on "Boys of Summer" By saying "Out on the Road today I saw a Black Flag sticker on a cadillac".

What about PAt Boone's cover of schools Out?

On another note, I just heard Mariah Cartey's version of " Bringing on the Heartbreak" I'm starting to like

No, " Eat It" is better than "Fat"
