They are the single worst-singing trio I've heard in my whole life.

Two of them are fairly decent but one of them has this pitch that is absolutey HORRIBLE, and naturally she does the main parts to the cover of 'Landslide.' Ick!
Country music sucks.
 
if the Dixie Chicks are good, Britney Spears is writing her own lyrics... it's just... bad! hell, Destiny's Child makes a better trio, even if they suck pretty badly too!

:lol: The Pumpkins covered "Landslide"?

They surely did, it's on the Pisces Iscariot CD. It's just Billy and an acoustic guitar, but it's surprisingly good. I learned how to play it on guitar using this version.
 
It's funny you mention them. I listened to Mellon Collie for the first time in a long time the other day.

I'd forgotten how good it is. :)
 
Over this side of the pond we have a couple of complete tossers called Gareth Gates and Will.... ?... something or other and those two are busy butchering old masterpieces. As i understand it they're trashing some real classics like 'unchained melody'.

Neon, if i can find evidence that they use z's at the end's of words would you mind putting them up against a wall for me?
 
I've been thinking about this, and I have to nominate A1's cover of Aha's "Take on me", and Cher's cover of "Walking in Memphis", which suffered from her inability to pronounce the 'i' sound so it sounded like "Walking in Memfuss". Truly horrific, just like every other Cher song ever.
 
A1 i take it they are a boy band? There should be a law against them.

And yep totally agree with the Cher thing. I think she should stop now and concentrate on her acting and stay away from music. I still remember that awful dirge she sang on the boat with all the sailors, what the hell was that tripe?
 
"If I could turn back time"

Another one came to light yesterday.

Kid Rock's cover of Hank Williams Jr.'s "A country boy can survive"

I think Cher needs to retire. She's got enough plastic in her to host a tupperware party, the highlight of her acting career was "Mask" and she's got grandchildren.

I think the Beach Boys verison of "California Dreamin'" is not as good as the original..... But I wouldnt say its bad...

Pennywise made a cover of that. It's alright. I like it.
 
Most modern renditions stink. Ever heard Vonda Sheppard? Painful when she assassinates the oldies.
 
GnR-Knockin on Heavens Door, absolutely the worst Guns n Roses song ever in my opinion, I truly hate it!
 
I heard it for the first time in 3 months last night and I nearly bunched my steering wheel(which would have activated my airbag and I would be stuck until the airbag deflated.
