I don't disagree with any of this! This article includes videos of some of these dreadful covers!

ohhh. Some of those clips need health warnings!
Why treat life as a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving in an attractive & well-preserved body? Get there by skidding in sideways, a glass of wine in one hand, chocolate in the other, body totally worn out, screaming WOOHOO! What a ride!

William Shatner has some so-bad-they-are-funny-which-makes-them-good cover s!!!!
My personal favorite is his cover of the Beatles Lucy In The Sky Wwith Diamonds


I think Spock did some hilarious cover too back in the day. There's a CD out their called " golden throats sing the classics" (not sure of the exact title) that chronicles these, and more equally hilarious
covers from the 60's.

Personally, I think that Carey does a great version of Open Arms. I enjoy it as much as the original.
