Songs that artists shouldn't/shouldn't've sing/sang

[Bunnyboy]

Just thinking about this the other day.

I was hoping to hear a version of "Down Town" done by Nico 'cause it would be the funniest thing ever!!

Come to think of it, any pop song covered by Nico would be excellent fun

As for real ones... If i EVER hear Whitney Houston bludgering "i will always love you" again, i will personally see to it that she never sings again How - i cant say as it would be too traumatic for the good folks here

[Meffy]

You've Lost that Lovin' Feeling -- Telly Savalas

Bridge Over Troubled Water -- Senator Sam Ervin (of Watergate fame)

[any song at all] -- William Shatner or Leonard Nimoy

I Will Always Love You -- Whit- oh, wait, you already said

Oh, yes, and:

Hey Jude -- Elvis Presley

In these hurricane days.. I wouldn't recommend "When the levee breaks"

I dont like the idea of singing about the hoffmeister either

The Fall doing "Hey Ya" would be quite special and very very wrong

[Hovmod]

Britney Spears doing "in the neighbourhood" would be wrong, while Tom Waits could probably pull of a killer version of "toxic"...

[HanafiH]

George W Bush - I did it my way.

[Bunnyboy]

Waits doing "Living on a Prayer" by Madge would be pretty cool for all the wrong reasons!!

Phil Collis should not have sang anything. Damn good drummer, though. He's all over Another Green World as a percussionist.

[Hovmod]

I also think Paul Anka probably should have left "Smells like teen spirit" alone...

[HanafiH]

Julian Clary - I was born under a wandering star.

And of of course the immortally bad 'You're the one that I want' by Hylda Baker and Arthur Mullard - easaly the worst Top Of The Pops performance of all time - and that's some pretty stiff competition.

Yeah, I try not to think about that when listening to said record


Oh god, if you have ever heard the Flying Pickets version of "...teen spirit" then you will understand my fear

Mr. Boone, a word of advice: Don't come around here no more. Not without a big supply of tomato juice.
