Worst covers and good covers??

[Inkara1]

I can't stand Lenny Kravitz's version of American Woman. It's slow and boring, and he left out the nifty guitar solos that made the Guess Who's version memorable. I can't believe no one's mentioned that yet.

I'd have to file all of William Shatner's covers under "so bad it's funny," along with the 1966 Batman movie. "MR. TAMBOURINE MAN!!!!!!!!!!"

Holy Hell - There's a batman cover of Mr. Tamborine Man?! *BoP thanks her lucky stars that she stayed under /that/ particular rock*

Tantric - The Chain is pretty good

I was a little confusing, I guess. I was speaking of William Shatner's "Mr. Tambourine Man" cover.

Spiderbait's cover of Black Betty is just the best ever version I have had the pleasure of listening to. Highly reccomend it to anyone, seems to have a hillbilly twist to it!

Actually I like Lenny's version, though the The Guess Who one is unquestionably better. I just wished they had included that one in American Beauty's soundtrack CD...

Even worse.

I rather like The Stereophonics cover of "Handbags and Gladrags."
