Med hjälp av läsarna har man satt samman en elak lista där man också på djupet går in på vad som är det värsta med versionerna.
Listan i sin helhet med den värsta sågningen i kursiv stil efter titeln;
1. Miley Syrus – ”Smells Like Teen Spirit” (Nirvana). ”…it seemed to embody everything that people dislike about her.”
2. Limp Bizkit – ”Behind Blue Eyes” (The Who). ”…Fred Durst and Halle Berry have a really gross make-out session…It’s one of the worst moments in the history of anything.”
3. Madonna – ”American Pie” (Don McLean) ”She removed about half the verses to the song and what remained was really flat and lifeless.”
4. Sheryl Crow – ”Sweet Child O’ Mine” (G’N’R) ”Axl has never commented on it, but he probably hates it too.”
5. Britney Spears – ”(I Can’t Get No) Satisfaction” (Rolling Stones) ”It’s hard to think of a way to piss off rock and roll purists more than Britney Spears covering The Rolling Stones.”
6. Alien Ant Farm – ”Smooth Crominal” (Michael Jackson) ”If you were a completely unknown pop-punk band in 2001 and you wanted some mainstream attention, your best bet was to record a goofy cover of a famous 1980s hit.”
7. Britney Spears ”I Love Rock & Roll”. (Joan Jett)” – or ”Pat Benatar,” as Spears famously called her when promoting the single.”
8. Avril Lavigne – ”Imagine” (John Lennon) ”her version sounds like it came from a karaoke night somewhere in Ontario…”
9. Jessica Simpson ”These Boots Are Made For Walkin” (Nancy Sinatra) ”…even a Willie Nelson vocal cameo couldn’t make the track anything but an embarrassment.”
10. William Shatner ”Lucy In The Sky With Diamonds” (The Beatles) Hela skivan är omtalad som: ”…perhaps the most mocked album in the history of recorded music.”
