Disturbed's cover of Sound of Silence.
Yes, please! I hate it when people say it's better than the original.
Yea WTF is up with that. I listen to a rock radio station every day and they go on like it's the greatest cover of all time. It absolutely kills the melody of that song, and that nu-metal whiny voice is fucking terrible.
My short list is:
Hotel California
All Star
Tubthumping
Knocking On Heaven's Door
Enter Sandman
Eiffel 65 - Blue (Da Ba Dee)
Overplayed garbage. It has no redeeming features, it's just dumb, annoying as hell and for a while it was all over the radio. Thankfully I haven't heard it the past few years.
Other songs I may dislike because they are lame and overplayed (Wonderwall, Hotel California, I believe I can fly), but those are at least competent songs, so I don't hate them.
