What songs do you think are classics but ruined when covered by other artists?
Post the videos of these songs if you can find them so we can listen.
Here is one of my favorite songs, "Teenage Dirtbag" by Wheatus. It's about a high school nerd in love with the popular prep girl who doesn't even know he exists and is dating a jock. I guess you could call it a nerd anthem.
Now this poppy ass girl group, Girls Aloud, made a cover of it. I found this really odd because they seem like the type of girls who the nerd is in love with in the original version of the song. Stuck up cheerleaders. They just completely butchered the song. Have a listen.
Joan Jett's "Repuation". This was a classic and if you guys remember the show "Freaks and Geeks", it was the theme song.
Here is Avril Lavigne's horrible attempt at covering this song.
System of a Down's "Chop Suey"
and once again, the queen of horrible cover songs butchers another classic. Damn this one is really, REALLY bad.
