There are a lot of great picks here. I'll add another to the list:
The Cure's epic "Lovesong" was BUTCHERED by 311. They turned it into some reggae-styled shit. I will never forgive them for it. Jordan Knight's cover of "I Could Never Take the Place of Your Man" is unforgivable too. Feel free to join in the Prince Album Poll 2018!

That's probably the one "classic" song that I out-and-out loathe. That being said, Madonna's version is even worse IMO; it's the worst thing she's ever done. I actually don't mind Jordan Knight's "I Could Never Take the Place of Your Man." It works as a ballad. "Whitney was purely and simply one of a kind." ~ Clive Davis | |

I know. I love what she did with it. It's eighties and sort of tacky yet it works and her vocal performance is great! | |

It is not a favorite song of mine nor do I even like it, but this is the first time I have read that it is vomit-inducing. I thought Americans held it up as a sacred song or something. I guess not!

The fact that I had to endure god-knows-how-many drunken singalongs of that elephant’s left testicle of a song during my university days just entrenched my hatred. [Edited 10/7/07 16:27pm] | |

I don't like the Rock sound and Tina's screaming on the song. I prefer Al Green's smooth voice, the horns, bass guitar, and the violins. | |
