We all know that alot of songs are re-made and usually sound awefull!

Here is 1 that makes me wanna vomit!! (I closed the page within seconds)

www.youtube.com/v/ozk75DM7d2w ("Shes like the wind" (A wonderfull 80s song))


If that wasnt enough for ya heres another!

www.youtube.com/v/I7imqO-OBVk - "Careless Whisper" (Another good 80s song)

List out songs you feel are disgusting and degrade the original......

I know I'm going to get flamed for this but here goes.
Maybe some people don't consider this a remake but, I think Erick Clapton's remake (unplugged version) of Layla is pathetic. Followed closely by The Eagles' remake of Hotel California. I have the highest respect for both of these artists by the way.

I was just in the company cafeteria gettin an afternoon coffee and someone was doing a remake of Traffic's Dear Mr. Fantasy. It was kind of a grungy, low fi approach to the song.....

I got the heck out of there...didn't wait to see who the artist was.

I kind of thought Jim Carey did a pretty good job as the walrus. But here's one canadian who can suck the life out of any classic.

yup for sure some of the overblown studio arrangements with massed strings and extra maple syrup are a bit hard to take, but dig through your archives for "All for You" (tribute to Nat King Cole Trio) - Frim Fram Sauce and Hit that Jive Jack- or almost anything with the Clayton/Hamilton Jazz Orchestra - nothing snoozy there

The original Hotel California was on the The Eagles' "Hotel California album" released in 1976. It has awesome (electric) guitar work on it. The unplugged version was released in 1996.

Just about any Beatles covers:
Sioux and the banshees Hey Jude
Aerosmith Come Together

And in general covers that are my mimics or reproductions of the original. If you're going to do a cover, make it your own.
