There was a thread about worst cover song ever.

Now time out for fun.

I nominate Hurra Torpedo's take of that Steinman/Tyler classic

I remember those NotTheNineOClock pastiches: brilliant!

It's about time for The Wurzels (not, I think, a sentence you hear everyday) with their 'interpretation of 'Brand New Key' by Melanie;

I remember this at the time as well when I was probably about the same age and thinking, "well. what's funny about that?"

Funniest cover song ever
