I actually liked it. Granted the only recordings I've heard of it have been bootlegs and the sound quality was pretty bad, but the song itself was, IMO, pretty good. Was this ever officially released?

I still like the original better though...and The Bad Plus cover better than the original...but oh well...

The worst part of that was watching Metallica enjoy it. Or, as I like to think... pretend to enjoy it.

The Foundations.

I have the studio mp3 version. It was released on the Crucify EP. It's a very different sound, obviously, but I LOVE it. Possibly as much as the original. Probably because I'm a huuuuuge Tori fan, but yeah. SO GOOD.

If anyone wants to hear the non bootleg version, just lemme know.

I thought of one (though I could go on for years if I really wanted)...

Counting Crows cover of "Big Yellow Taxi". It makes me sad whenever it comes on at work. :no:

Hmmm ... All Saints doing Under the Bridge and the White Stripes doing Walking with the Ghost.

Wait, you hate the original of dancing queen, or did someone else do a bad cover of it?

How about Hilary and Hayley Duff doing "Our Lips are Sealed"? Even though the original was pretty bad, their version just makes my ears bleed.
