You can kill a song immediately with a bad cover. Alternately the can be very respectful and totally immortalise a song..... Or else send it up like nothing else

There are a few bad cover songs uhmm...

Anyone who tries to cover Peter Gabriel has failed miserably. A good example of this is, Erasure - Solsbury Hill (although the 37B remix isn't all that bad)

Kill Hannahs version of Fischerspooner's cover of The 15th by the wire is terribly boring.

I agree with the Kelly Osbourne and Britney Spears Covers. Those covers are pure shit.

and the award for Worst Cover Song EVER goes to T.A.T.U for slaughtering The Smiths' - How Soon is Now?

But cover songs I love are:

Baby's on Fire covered for the Velvet Goldmine soundtrack, although the guitar parts could've used some tweaking.

Depeche Mode - Route 66
Garbage - Candy Says (Velvet Underground), Can't Seem To Make You Mine (Sky Saxon/The Seeds)
The Smashing Pumpkins - Destination Unknown (Missing Persons), Never Let Me Down Again (Depeche Mode)
Tiga - Hot in Herre (Nelly)
and don't tell anyone I told you this but I like....
Huey Lewis and Gwenyth Paltrow - Cruisin (Smokey Robinson)

Best cover ever is probably "Big D And The Kids Table - Wailing Paddle", originaly by the Rudiments. It's very similar to the original, but it just kicks ass, especially live.

Covers that make Arm go :

• Demons & Wizards - White Room
  Pantera - Planet Caravan(but the original still kicks alot of ass)
  Megadeth - Paranoid
  Nightwish - Phantom of the Opera
  Slayer - Hand of Doom

Covers that make Arm go :

• Slayer - In a Gadda Da Vida
  the punk cover of Barbie Girl.
  Avril Lavigne - Chop Suey
  Me First and the Gimme Gimmes - Phantom of the Opera

Covers that make Arm go :
